Turffontein Saturday 11th

Chaps can someone tell me why arcetri pink left woody stable for Naidoo? Just find it slightly odd seeing Woodruffs record in the big races over the last few years.

Three naps to make a treble:

1. TRIP TEASE
2. MAJMU
3. WILD ASH

Two value bets to beat the odds:

1. ANJAAL - I think worth 5/2, available 3/1
2. HONEYBUSH TEA - I think worth 4/1, available 9/2

A dutch to brass the favourite:

• TEMPEST & SILENT TREATMENT - I think worth 16/10, available 28/10

Prosperous punting

Empress Club slamming them...

Sapsan in the 1st value at 12/1 surely? Who knows what the 1st timer from de Kock offers, but Sapsan has run in hot company and wasn't disgraced in a feature last time out. Strydom up adds to the attraction.

Sure I backed Slinky Jack last time but was withdrawn at the start cos he wouldnt load.

OTA, think it's fair to say despite the Strydom factor, the bookies are prepared to "lay" Sapsan. Opened 7/1, now 12's available. The De Kock stable will have some idea on Shaama's chances on a line through Entisaar, whom they train as well. See there is money for the Spies runner, Guest Lodge, 50/1 into 6's, I would stick my neck out and say Scandal is the right one from the stable. Absolute nightmare trying to work these juvenile races out.

Every time you see a redoubts Choice first timer you gulp

He is a loon - Went down dilly and would not load - I think tons of ability but crazy -
Whatever beats ESCAPE ROUTE wins - Unfancied in Feature and beat a host of winners that day including the "pigeon catcher" BUCKINGHAMSHIRE.

NIGHT ON THE HILL could earn here

Mac the Honeybush Tea formline looks alot stronger than the favourite, in agreement with you...

L15 eway
Honeybush Tea
Battle in Seattle
Arcetri Pink
Eva Tibbs

Guest Lodge debuted at Scottsville in a feature and was backed in from 20/1 to 8/1 so how on earth was this horse ever priced up at 50/1 back in the maidens??
Have taken some very decent e/w bets and win/place doubles with Honeybush Tea who will improve enormously on her fair first run and is also very generously priced up..

Arniston ..at the odds is worth a look

Imo escape route ran past beaten horses cause of the going, clearly looking like a horse that needs further not sure of track conditions today but if running fast the sprinters will outrun him
if slinky jack has been for counseling it will be no race
