MUPPETS SINGED

After posting on some ridiculous claims on certain horses ie Eruption/Slumdog Oscar yesterday,the greed of 'you now who'could not help themselves and persued to claim Slumdog Oscar 4 times into favouritism,which was unwarrented considering that this horse had never run before.Maybe this was an expensive exercise for those singed muppets,and one or two more of these lessons,could give the owners piece of mind,as the muppets cry wolf as settling nears.

out of interest..SLUMDOG OSCAR
looking at the tote PA tickets GOING FORWARD..
many were on the first timer....
one has to assume that the horse can run..

its rare for PA players to include first timers in the PA..
ESPECIALLY IN THE LATTER LEGS OF THE PA..
surely the stable companion would be a better selection for the PA..

hence, I have my opinion..
will follow the horse.....

must show something at work..
either beating the stable companion or working side by side..
never the less..will not get a price next time or even 3 more races..


ERUPTION...never thought it could run a place..PARAMO is in question..?

as for the claims..SLUMDOG OSCAR

dont think more than R3K was spend..
because it had the stable companion in the same race, bookies assumed that the trainer had a line through the stable companion, and shortened the horse quickly.
suspect it was bookmakers claiming the horse, in anticipation of punters storming them down with their R50 and R100
the horse drifted in the end..

Andre I doubt it was the bookies shortening the horse in this case . You got to read in between the lines with this case . I got very limited info but I suspect it was "a " Stable who thought they knew more then everyone else .

Lex..
which stables do still have credit with the bookies....
its way past the monthend, when you paid them..
ps..you are the only one paying 60 x R5k..the others are waiting for Phumelela to schedule races for their 3y old maindens...
the money is up..bills are settled...grooms paid..

cash..
maybe..
send the grooms uncle..
first to cash crusaders..3 saddles and all the blankets..

the horse were fancied. Ask why there was money. This yard always involved with claims. Who is telling the guys to punt?

1. Why did they fancy the horse
2. Why did they back the horse
3. Who told them to back the horse

Morning all, sure the horse has a bit of a reputation, however as I mentioned in a previous post we were not told to punt the horse by the trainer, Lucky.
He feels it needs a bit more ground, and we were hoping for a good run.
I did have a bet on the horse at the off, but always have a bet on any horse I have ever had a share in.
So no betting coup from the owners on this one.

I dont say the owners had a punt. I say the news were out that this horse can run. So who gives this news? I see lots of owners from lucky watch the morning work. Lots of AMG mercedes. Go find from KEITH HO who of his clients did claim the horse

The wrong stable claimed the horse . Funny game this .

It's a first timer..
what is the claim on a first timer...R10K..?????
so R10k/R1K started the show..

its the R1K that went round and round and round.
at first I thought it was at least R3K..........

IF it was a MDK horse..different story..bucketshop in Hong Kong..

but the VAAL trainers...no...no offence..but they are all off form..
good at raiding PE..with Dr. Lennon and a bucket of water..........


it's a figment of our imagination, if we think that some bookie laid R50K of the horse at the opening price..

they all talk nonsense..when you want to take back..R10K at best..
if any one wants to argue this..
put your name down and lay me R200k..cash..on the jump..of the first timers comming out in the next few weeks..
