Good morning all and hope we are ready for a great sporting weekend.
We have the BETFRED Oaks and Derby.
The English and Scottish cup finals.
Plus great sprint racing from Scottsville.
We can only hope the protestors do not spoil the raceday at Epsom and no harm to any horse or jockey takes place and the police keep control and jail a few idiots.
I am trying not to watch the news again but do get my morning update and buzz from Alec Hogg's Biznews.
If ANC gets involved with racing we will be PUTIN our bets on and getting paid in Rubles 😪 they really have no shame.
Yesterday was another fiasco and well done to the DA for an explanation of Cyrils progress over the last 4 years.
You know my feelings on the Oaks and Derby and my bets are all on .
Plenty info on the site from the BETFRED team.
I am also sure you are aware Aiden Obrien won his 400th grade/group one race when Luxembourg arrived the other day.
Note! He will be attempting to win the Derby for a ninth time and he has won the Oaks on 10 occasions.
Between him and Willie Mullins we are blessed to have Irish trainers of this class to help us find the winners.
I have individual bets as well as a double with SAVETHELASTDANCE and AUGUSTA RODIN.
We also have the Coronation Cup a small but competitive field where Westover might be the right one but poor Rob Hornby only has to out smart Dettori, Buick and Moore.
On the local front at Hollywood Scottsville
We have
Winter Cloud (Golden Tatjana)
Lucky lad (Outlaw King)
Princess Calla (Desert Miracle)
Rio Querari (Gimme a Prince)
Some exciting racing and a pick 6 will be worth trying to catch.
The July picture taking shape and I still have a bet on WITHOUT QUESTION as HUMBLE TUNE was scratched when they changed to poly and reduced distance but I am less confident.
I was impressed with the ROCKPOOL run. SEE IT AGAIN (Roberts/Strydom) does look the part but we have to hit the departure lounge in Joburg before the brain cells kick in 😉
Zietsman and Georgie my partner in crime have El Romiachi running against HUMBLE and hope to see Geogies silks hitting the line together on Friday with Humbles head in front for some good swingers Note! This is weather permitting as Humble won't run again on Poly.
The football is also on Saturday and its hard to look past Man City these days as they are the best team on the planet and the Champions League also looks at their mercy.
Inverness will have to have the Loch Ness Monster on the bench to beat Celtic
We have to upgrade the site again as in the IT world we are getting outdated.
It's a difficult task to move the monster but Niko and his team will try their best without interruption and pressure from Bob and myself.
This time last year one of my Heros passed away and Lester was the master of the Derby and here is 6 of his 9 wins
Good Punting 👍
