2nds and 3rds largely very fancied. No help to punters. Such is the game though

Riding at the TOP of his game at the moment.

....unless you look to float in exotics.....who says you have to back a winner to be a winner.....best value is when the fav tries but dont win....

36/1 straight line PA - if you took a Bi pot with only Delpech and Marcus would cost you R32(Marcus only had 5 rides in the bet) you get back almost R600 - but hindsight never buys the drinks!

To me, Delpech is the best.

My opinion again. Anyone can ride this class of horse into a place.

Watch some of the younger riders - they can't beat a bad draw..they can't read pace..they unbalance horses when they pull the stick - or when they race wide they panic with their head whipping around every few seconds to see if there is a gap opening on the rail and cause their rides to change legs or to feel the panic - they fight horses instead of letting them stride etc - They are inconsistent - Delpech and the senior riders(some of the youngsters also) have earned the rides on top horses -

Delpech the best at the moment in SA!!

Top class and will win the championship!!

IMO Delpech and Lerena are the most consistent riders. When these jocks are sitting on a horse I punted, I'm assured they are going to give 100% effort unlike some of the Cape jockeys.

agree with you pc
