TURFFONTEIN SATURDAY 27 APRIL 2024

We have Crimson King in the Gold Bowl. Nothing went right for him last time- stuck out wide all the way. Better draw today, and has reportedly been doing very well at home.
Zeus looks the horse to beat but he has to carry a big weight. There are a lot of low weighted horses that have scope for improvement so a difficult race to win. Likely to be a solid pace.
I think that Crimson will stay the trip and he has a decent ew chance.

No disrespect intended and, hindsight is 20/20...I think PS thought he had it, but no-one has eyes in the back of their head. A well balanced ride by him vs the hard work that CZ had on a green horse.

Spot on .... I saw him glance over his shoulder 50m's from the line and suddenly get vigorous. Just an observation .... I am a HUGE Striker fan... but I reckon he should have won that one
 

On big days 

Tarry Tarry Tarry 👏

Some beautiful fillies in the ring...and the horses are nice, too

Queen Laurie by Great Britain (GB) looks to be good broodmare...

Must be getting old - but the less I watch of this 'presentation' (especially the post-race interviews), the better
