Kenilworth Saturday 28th January -MET DAY

Marshalls World of Sport having happy hour until 4PM on all 13 races. Excellent prices, 31/10 Legal Eagle.

i believe that if i combine Peter D and Frodo write ups then the day will end up in a profit. Thanks to the both of you for your excellent analysis .

How much will the winning jockey earn in the Met

Legal Eagle is not the best horse in the country. Tarry picks the races he can win by manipulating the rules when Legal Eagle wins all the big ones he can be regarded as the best. Good Luck hope he wins. Happy punting

I am in the mic tonight and here's my selection for tomorrow:

1. Big talk for the bass stable and the money seems to be following the horse so WHO will it be in the number 1 box!

2. Call to account will win this race and dutch Philip will be running for second

3. Barrack Street or any of the Snaiths horsesn

4. sergeant hardy or not but Attenborough will make it shift for a second gear!

5. Williams Longsworld and the rest be damned

6. Its going to be brutal and red ray will make amends big time and trip to heaven will be chasing home shadows

7. I will be drinking by now and so I will be singing Nightingale

8. What better entries like Newlands and Table Bay and obviously it is racing in cape town!

9. Legal Eagle and be damned!

10. Ovidio is a banker for most but Zafira will it firing

11 If you still have pocket change Jetano will be da one to beat (hopefully PeterD will be the competition.... All The Best PeterD)

12 Too damn drunk by then to one to back a damn horse when I have all the fillies following ..........

Play well guys and ALL THE BEST ONE AND ALL... and REMEMBER its RACING

Many senior jockeys get 10%, the rest get 7%. Trainers get an official 7%, but most have contracts with their clients to get an additional 3% of ordinary stakes, and a bigger slice of feature race winning stakes.
So it's more likely around R425k to the trainer

In the past year he has won Queens Plate twice, besting the best milers at level weights. In Gauteng won the Horse Chestnut, beating allcomers over a mile at level weights, plus the Premier Challenge over 2000m on top weight in a conditions Gr 1. His only defeats the Met last year to Smart Call who has subsequently left the country, and a warm up sprint. He was not campaigned in the KZN winter season but nothing that ran there put up better performances than his this year. Clearly the best 1600m- 2000m horse in the country for the past year, and deservedly the highest rated horse in SA.
Your post makes no sense at all.
