Clan Classique

Not being settled in that first 400m, and getting over from that poor draw [brilliant speed from the gates though] might have cost her a place; otherwise a cracking run!

Thoughts?

Far too handy for my liking. Also quite a weak field....

Agreed - She looked a bit uptight going down - throwing her head up and messing Gunter around a bit. She looked a winner at one stage but seemed to loose a bit of steam towards the end. I cant fault the ride. I feel that she did not disgarce herself and she wil be back for more if she is fine after this run.

There was a lot of money flowing her way though..... I wonder how much Freeracer money was on?

she doesnt look at all suited to a tight track,put her at the vaalgrass or outside turfontein track and she will improve lengths...as discussed before on this forum the racing schedule in joburg leaves a lot to be desired

Agreed Hexen; that was the one thing that did worry me, the field was weak.

If she was good enough, should have won; very good ride!

Pirates 100% how can they justify one grass race meeting a week in Gauteng..its a joke man..also why has it taken so long for the grass at the Vaal..and where did racing on the outside track at Turf go??

One would really believe that they should be trying to jack things up instead of blowing their trumpets.

Hi guys not a bad race, the plan was to drop it out and run on, but she was very keen and was pulling to the front, need to teach her to settle, but will leave it to Lucky, Gunter felt it has a lovely stride and gave him a nice feel, will keep you posted.

Scotia after 57 minutes its Hibs 1 Hearts 1

Hi to the Clan,

CC was tote favourite at one time.
I think it was Clan money. Lol.
Lovely to watch the children running.

My twins are 32 years old now and have never given their daddy anything from all they have earned since leaving school.
Nothing to cover the cost of boarding and lodging, training at school, medical bills, uniforms, transport, etc.

Now, my other child CC, is going to pay !!!
A portion of her first stakes payout will be framed and will hang above my desk.

I think Scotia should get all banking details from the syndicate members so he can transfer all the expected earnings from our baby.
I'll send mine direct, Scotia.
Lets rather be proactive because she will be earning moola for us.

Enjoy.

Cheers Wally, if you would like an advance against the Oaks, just give me a shout!

O.K A.B. will settle for a D.H.
