Hopefully the addition of milk to the tea won't affect the reading of the leaves. If there is three winners or more, i shall become a teetotaller and an apprentice charlatan :-
R1) T'Challa (will stalk them like a panther)
R2) De Bull (this could be an omen for BS for those who read this post)
R3) Walk Of Fame (hopefully not shame like a certain DJT)
R4) Supreme Leader (tea leaves say in reference to the President Elect)
R5) Perfect Princess (not Ivanka despite her father's thoughts)
R6) Rainbow Bridge (apparently a sign that the previous administrations corruption has been washed away, seriously)
R7) Zarina (the golden ticket to victory)
R8) Silver Sabre (a character from Marvel comics, interesting Superman is riding)
This better not work, otherwise I'd have to give my unopened bottle of whiskey away:(
Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

Not much wind today, slight headwind/crosswind expected later. Cool day, course will be fast. We've had light rain yesterday but no impact.
Kotzen runners scratched due to virus.
Race 1 T'challa disappointing last time, but on first run is the one to beat but too short odds.Izapha and Maison Merci must be respected. I bred Mhlabeni which did not show much on debut and seemed to me to get a very soft introductory ride. Hoping he shows a lot of improvement today although needs further.
Race 2 De Bull looks hard to beat. A few first timers and Coolusive can improve after fair debuts.
Race 3 Galiek Yo Baby selected to build on good first run from Crown Diamond and Walk of Fame.
Race 4 Legitimate first choice from Crack it Open, Superior Leader and Divergent. There are a few others that could upset
Race 5 Not much between 1, 2, 3,4, 9, with a slight preference for Glitter in the Air
Race 6 The Marshall pair should fight this out, with a preference for Silver Operator. Wild Coast must be respected, and Photocopy will probably try to steal it, and in doing so should ensure a proper pace.
Race 7 Our game mare Secret Depths is very well and in form and expecting her to run her usual honest race, although 1400m is slightly on the short side for her. Zarina is the one to beat after a cracking run last time and this time gets the benefit of the 2.5kg claim. Fiftyshadesdarker gets a good draw for a change, and should go very close. I think the two youngsters will fight it out, and the balance are very closely handicapped together.
Race 8 Silver Sabre and Rain in Newmarket have most scope for improvement and should fight this out.
