TURFFONTEIN SATURDAY 04 NOVEMBER

R4), Jordan (33/10), carrying 52.0kg. Never really travelled well last time out, maybe second run after the rest syndrome and the slow pace. Looks like it should have no problems going the extra, peak run, weight turn-around with House Of Romanov and should appreciate running on the stand-side track. Wouldn’t be too concerned that C. Habib is not riding him on the day, he can’t make the weight. Mxoli is not in the worst form either. Off this weight, believe this is the one they all have to beat.

Played the double :-

Jordan X (Durb R7) Baratheon

R1 Virgin River.
Fav in CT R1.


And following Rods on Jordan .

Alec Laird to have a big day. Also going with the guys with Jordan. 33/10 & a place (2)

GARLANDSOFGREENERY

Race 1 looks a two-horse contest judging on the betting; both Virgin RIver and Garlandsofgreenery finding betting support - for me I just prefer the debutante - has a better draw and Virgin RIver may need a little more ground - exacta box

R2: Again I'm swayed by the draws ; William Blake first choice, but for me more difficult than the first

R3: Thunee Player made a very good debut and may hold Dhoni who has a wider draw, with No Place Like Home third best imo; I Spied improving and has pole position, so may threaten the top 3

R4: Classy field, but being a handicap, I think many have chances; not a lot between Jordan and Majestic Touch on their clash in the Maidens, so MT the value

The favourite who hasn't run for 329 days opened 5/2 and is currently 1/1 considering there is no deduction on the scratched horse, going to go with the money.

R2 I backed the fav already.


I hope it runs better than it looks and went down.

They have to beat Walled Garden
