Another short priced one at Greyville t'morrow .....................could win as it's first run was good and it could be anything......... but it should be receiving +- 5 Kg from the field as WFA allowance,so I would be a bit wary!

De Kork in Dubai. Trained by a youngster. Be wary until the maestro is back.

You'd be down I'm sure if you backed all the Delpech/ De Kock combo odds on favourites in the past. The market seems to overbet any De Kock odds on favourite in my opinion.

Think their runner in the 5th race tomorrow should have a happy ending.

Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

Most are 2yos.Caution is to be taken with 2yos...regardless of who the trainer is.

Same used to happen in the Halceon days of Cecil and Stoute in the UK, every newcomer or once raced maiden that ran was odds... usually because these trainers are good and dont waste owners time with useless animals.. MDK is basically the same

True Bob.What most punters fail to realise is that horses are individuals who have their own mindsets.Just because bookies price them up 5/10 doesn't mean they will run like a champ.Some they longer 'for the penny to drop' than others. Spies and Niewenhuysen are just as good as the Snaiths,tarry,MDK with 2yos...but the difference is the price which is much better with their youngest as,coz the trainers aren't 'marked'
