A loser's liberation on Freedom Day by leon setaro

Few experiences can rival busting a losing run with a long priced ‘outie’ and Fastnetrock (pictured - 24/04/09)
has been pinpointed to do the honours in the 4th race at Greyville tonight.

Soft and choppy track conditions were the order of the day at Clairwood yesterday and this blew away the formbook check out the exotic payouts : P/A - R12.5k : Pick 6 - R305k : Jackpot - R17k. Today however is another story; although it was overcast early on things quickly changed and we now have clear skies this afternoon.. and hopefully enough to dry the Greyville surface for tonight’s meeting.

Even in perfect conditions it’s still a card to terrorise punters all over again and assuming they do race on a decent surface then one bet alone carries this punter’s hopes tonight - Fastnetrock! He was deep in the mud two weeks back at Greyville dodging tit-size grass sods to finish 2 lengths back, this a decent showing considering that wet conditions don’t do it for him. He’s currently looking exceptional (see image taken on Friday) and is poised to repeat his KZN debut where he blew away the opposition in eye catching style. Find him 2nd from the bottom on the bookmakers’ flatscreen at 7/1, but that’s with a 28% house margin in play. On Interbet before race time this will be between 3% and 8% which already equates to a decent stretch. Then add in the likelihood of a drift and there should be at least 14/1 available. Go boy!

Greyville track is knackered.. lucky numbers time again.

Cheers Leon, will be following your selections.
