That's racing is a perfectly legitimate excuse for our NHRA.
Or horses make fools of us just as good.

NHRA not taking action when these short price favorites run poorly is a major challenge. The trainers should be held to account.

Rowing in with Trip Of Fortune, R3. Has competed against decent company and beaten some good sorts. Reverting back to the minimum distance, not ideal, hoping the blinkers and his class get him home.

Played the double with Stiptelik, R7.

3 Trip Of Fortune 1.82 1.67 1.52 1.11
5 Barzalona 6.67 6.25 6.67 7.14 8.33 10.00

Not what you want to see in horse racing.
Heavily backed only to be beaten by it's stable companion,probably 50m behind that one.
But as SA racing motto,that's horse racing.

The ride, in my opinion, was very questionable. The favourite was the second quickest out the stalls and the jockey made no effort to get to the better going, just stayed down the middle in the worst of the going. After a 100m Domeyer was actually leading. For a animal that was 3 from 3 in the wet, can't wait to hear "what went wrong" if that's how the jockey and trainer see it. Here Aldo ran second to last, the other day, also on the money horse, managed to get beaten by the longest priced horse in the race.

Distance: 1000m

Comments: Doing really well at home and we wouldn’t be surprised if he flashes home in front at the weights. Include in all bets.:whistle:

Trip Of Fortune

Distance: 1000m

Comments: Perhaps the best on ability from our charges, and he should be the horse to beat here.

Mr Cobbs

Distance: 1000m

Comments: He is also prepping for the Computerform sprint, He ran a cracking race in the Cape Flying Championship and as such must be highly respected here.

Master Of Africa

Distance: 1200m

Comments: Still a bit soft, but he shows ability and should run a fair race on debut.

Not sure they where very confident on this winner

Sihle Cele very nice ride on a Thousand ships. well done. ruffie but good ride

Very strange ride Naushon...last time drawn 1 and left alone to run on ....today drawn wide and the jockey forces him to race handy for no good reason...the winner came from way back....
