Zeus looks the standout , swingers and exactas with My Master

So Long Spring Race 5 could be some value @ 20/1 , 3rd run after long rest and dropping in ratings could do the trick

Zeus does look hard to beat

Good Punting

Super Silver - Serino traveling to JHB to spoil the Zues party?

Less champagne drunk in JHB so the top trainers are easier to follow

It's going to be a scorcher - don't think it will rain (famous last words) - only a 8 race card :huh: and a few hotties on the card which imo are all beatable - thoughts:

R1: Lightly raced Maiden Fillies (all had only 2 runs at most, bar the formless I Am Royal) so anything possible; I do suspect that the form of the 2 on top of the boards are not that hot - so I am sitting on the fence here - but if any of the first-timers has any ability, I think it will be an easy race to win - of the raced runners I do slightly prefer Stormy Lass

R2: Does not look the strongest of fields; Wikkel Spikkel may be the right one, but Hydrangea (the Tarry trained daughter of Gimmethegreenlight) has only had 2 starts and should improve over this distance

R3: Everybody and his dog are preaching Zeus, and he could win easily, but imo absolutely no value at the current price; first time on the Inside track and strictly at the weights, he could be troubled by My Master; Run as One is no slouch, but may also not be suited by this track; good value imo to run into the money is the 28/1 long shot With Pleasure, who gets 8kgs from Zeus and also should hold Flashy Apache on form

R4: Ultra-competitive handicap; favorite Qunetra should lead going into the last 100m, but the race is won at the post; Ball Rolling has Q held on their last meeting over this track and trip - yes, drawn wide, but in that race was also drawn 10 out of 12, so definite place chance imo; Flying Grace I think best up to 1600, not a lot between stable mates Kool Baikal (at best further ) and Call Me Master; Secret Giver always thereabouts, but also drawn wide; roughies to consider for quartet players are Flinders Range (should be held by CMM and KB) and Kurt's Approval - drawn widest, but rating has dropped and is well weighted)

R5: Trappy Classified Stakes, where The Sash is best in - and even with a rating of 59, consider that she has come down a whopping 14 points since Sept last year - so not to be ignored; the right horse on current form is Ideal Wolff (who should hold Go Dream Machine on recent form) but he is a 1-time winner out of 21 starts, so that does not inspire a lot of confidence; on the run behind Mad About Fashion, there should not be much between GDM and Atomic Blonde, but I am also including the other Peter runner, Gold Griffin, who does run well this track and trip - and should also hold Ideal Wolff on a run over the track and trip behind White Fang - admittedly in June last year

R6: Aryaam does look the right one here; Tarry stable is back in form and she only got 2 points for her last win - does try the extra trip and is probably better at a track with a longer straight; I make the dangers Masaaken who is unbeaten over this track and trip and Cap Estel, who should hold Stunning Kitten on their last meeting; roughie to consider is Zazu, who may prefer the step-up in trip and has also beaten CE in the Maidens over 2200 at this track

R7: Another hottie who imo is much too short in the betting is About to Storm; he could win, but this is a handicap, so imo should not be odds-on; Motor City Hitman is probably the main danger, but at the weights I also fancy the stable mate Indus Knight (not sure what happened last time :unsure ) and Master of Law; Bloomington also a bit of a dark horse, but that one is drawn wide

R8: Classified Stakes over the minimum trip, so the weight advantage for the females may not be as advantageous ; as was the case on Thursday (when I was very happy in catching the PA and the 2nd JP), one needs to go wide imo; I'd include all of Abalus (1000m too short imo ), Grindelwald (good draw, but not well weighted), True Brit, Imposing Angel, Urban Rock and perhaps even Mercer Girl

Enjoy

Stormy Lass wins and exacta with Rio's Kiss

You beauty, romped in
