Will they ever run on grass again in PE ?

Smith and Greeff in a close race for the trainers title , should be an interesting day's racing

Smith looks to have the better chances on the day and there is a few I think could go well at decent prices

Race 6 : You Know Who , dropping down the ratings and has run under two lengths to Cat Daddy over the c/d which should be good enough to run well here , swingers and exactas with Central City who looks Greeff best chance in the race

Race 5: Ekoria , second to Peach Daquiri and Phedra on its poly runs should be good enough to win here , swingers and exactas with Lady Mistico from the Greeff yard

Nadine is usually on the ball, but weirdly did not ask most of the trainers about their horses if switched to poly. Only Ziets commented on this even though it was under consideration early in the week, and in particular Smith and Greeff would have been well aware.

Ekoria now also scratched

Thanks for the posts guys and I think it's become norm that they will be racing on Poly as the trainers were aware at the time of interviews.

OK sorry take that back it does sound like at the time of interviews the poly was not confirmed.

Looking at the betting, the lowest BP div (a record ? low of R12 yesterday at the Vaal) may be in jeopardy :dry:
