    Turffontein South Africa 19 March

    Hi guys,

    11h35 Stunning 7/4 She was intefered with last start and having her first run from a long rest so i am expecting her to win this with striker strydom in the irons. Big Runner

    12h10 Psycho King 5/4 He is short in betting but he will win. He was clear of 3rd place last start and was hanging sharply to the left of the course. Has a top jockey on now and is another that should win comfortably.

    13h20 Glider Pilot 4/1 Been running in feature races and is running in a weaker race than last. Odd Rob 12/1 is weighted to go close but i think my selection will win.

    13h55 Skiminac 14/1 i like this horse. 2nd run after rest and is running over a distance he likes and improved run over a distance too short. Nice price and is my value today

    14h35 Alex The Great 8/1 He is dropping in the ratings and ran an ok race last time. 1000m is his prefered distance and he is a big runner at a good price.

    15h10 Wisteria Walk 9/4 He will beat the favourite i think. He went a different route in terms of feature races and i do think he ran to stronger especially running against the colts last time. Great chance today

    15h40 Seven Patriots 3/1 Not striding out last and run before went start to finish in a feature beating good horses than these. Top jockey booked and expect him to win again.

    Hope these help taking that no british racing until April

    Cheers

    Thanks for posting. What’s the situation in SA with the virus? Is Racing likely to continue for the foreseeable future?

    Hi Ricko,

    Yes racing is to continue until further notice. I have moved to Scotland now but was born and bred in south africa. Been here now a year.

    Regards

    8/1 into 5/2 yesterday was some move. What will have caused that sort of a move?

    Yip as i said in my post her last run went all wrong as she was striding short that day. Studying punters see this and start putting their money down. It happens a lot

    I've no doubt South African racing can be beat because the bookmakers here are just working off a tissue.

    Yes, I watched. Never looked in doubt and returned 11/8. Nice start

    Damn, that 3rd race was unlucky, went off at 7/1 and couldn't quite go past. Still a good call but there was a huge variance between the UK tissue (5/2) and local SP

    Glider Pilot ran a lovely race there just failing to run down the fav who made all. He was seriously weak in the betting. Last price I saw was 11.0 at the off from 7/2 on the tissue.

    Wisteria Walk 11/4 into 11/8 and runs flat. Always the way when it's the last leg of a multi.
