The three short priced favourites on the card, War Room, Miracle Flight and Eden Roc, short odds as a multiple on the day but with so much ante-post betting available, worth swinging these into other multiples.

The three on the day, I am of the opinion any bet is a good bet irrespective of the odds, provided it's a winning bet, settle for a even money winning bet, rather than backing a 10/1 short head loser.
Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

Yes Bayern i have to agree. We hear the presenters forever going on about some horse at 6 or 7or 8 -1 that represents value!! But if it loses it represents nothing at all. Surely Value is not to do with long odds but being able to spot a horse that is 9-10 when it should be 6-10. That's just an example but backing horses at long odds that end up losing is not Value at all. Just my opinion of course. As for Eden Roc today I'm a little worried im not sure I'll be taking that price or banking him in anything but of course I may be completely wrong.

No 3 Hot Tot Charn - Will need the experience

Grant Maroun

Race 2

Chris Jonker
No 6 Fenellopea - Expecting a good run
Grant Maroun
No 7 Great Stratz - Decent debut, should be in the first three

Race 3

Fabian Habib
No 7 Apollo Robbins -Will need the run
No 15 Solarize - Fit and well and should be competitive if the inside
draw is not a negative factor.
Ashley Fortune
No 8 Backsage Alley -,Will need more ground
Paul Matchett
No 12 Gavs Angel - Will need the run
Heather Adamson
No 13 Ideal Wolff - Nice horse, will need further
Chris Erasmus
No 14 Quattro Passi - Will be green
Corne Spies
No 4 Captains Fort - He's up against a strong filed but he ran a nice
race last time out and should be included in quartets
No 10 Cultured Pearl - Was a bit disappointing after his good first
run but he should improve on that effort.

Race 4

Fabian Habib
No 9 Daphne Du Maurier - Will need the run
Heather Adamson
No 12 Fort Anne - Nice filly, will need further
Paul Peter
No 14 Noele Pag'e Looking for further

Corne Spies

Race 8

Mike/Matthew De Kock
No 14 Hawthorn - Has a place chance
Candice Dawson

the best of draws, hopefully can pick up stake money.
