I would like to say...that was a great ride by Gavin Lerena.
I've always thought that he battled to read the Greyville course...because he is such a measured calm rider...he rode a fantastic race on KotG...hats off to him

Baltic Secret...this is always fast out of the gate...can it hold on for a place?
Donquerari...I liked this to post
King Of The Gauls...places
Baltic Secret...the slowest I have ever seen it jump...although it was battered at the start...I think SV has sore feet from that start

So my feeling with some of our jockeys, is that they take things into their own hands, because they feel that it someone else is "getting away with it", and then it backfires...classic case of under policing by the officials...Just My Opinion

As a final word...I would like to know if TCO2 readings were conducted today, and on which horses...I am trying to understand if the readings relate to how a horse looks to post...some horses just look so good, is it related? just asking...

I really enjoyed that days racing .

Some great performances highlighted by Quid Pro Quo and Dave the King. 

​​​​Unfortunately the Tarry yard hit the crossbar a few times and couldn't land the trainer's title for the clanners that got the 5/1 ! 

The SA season has ended however the British flat season is in full swing and Glorious Goodwood kicks off on Tuesday. Rosallion is my bet of the week in the Sussex stakes on Wednesday 👊

Yesterday, in the South Africa vs Australia bronze medal match, I was ranting at the TV for a few minutes after the match at the utter stupidity of the SA players...player crosses the tryline but doesn't touch the ball down but changes ball from right to left hand, receives a high five from his teammate and chooses to pass the ball to the team-mate to score...so many times the ball could have been knocked on / lost due to their stupidity...

I'm happy they won but I've seen instances where such arrogance resulted in a player losing the ball and costing his team dearly...
I saw that too, and cringed...what would they have said if it was contested by the officials...eg forward pass/knock on etc...
P.S. TNaicker, so I am guessing you are getting old too...😜
and I'm glad to see you posting more frequently again...

Not old...only 49...but not thrilled by people not seeing / ignoring consequences before any action...when there is an expectation of applying due care and skill...

I'm not a frequent poster but if I see something not right, I'm going to give my view and then move on...the most I've posted recently was on the Trump shooting thread but I've kept my word to not post on that topic again and won't...some views are entrenched and not my loss if people choose to believe what they want...

I had a pretty good day today...placed Sundance Kid (3rd Race 1), Just Reckless (1st Race 2), Dantonfromsandton (2nd Race 3), VJ's Angel (1st Race 5), Royal Aussie (3rd Race 6), Ponte Pietra (3rd Race 7), Saartjie (2nd Race 9), King of the Gauls (1st Race 10) - the same approach to picking may not work tomorrow so grateful for a good day when most guesses came through...

Whistle the Tune (Race 4) and Royal Victory (Race 8) only picks not to come in...

Wishing you and fellow Clanners a good week ahead...

Thank you, I have a bit of luck now and again...not consistent enough to punt though.
