TURFFONTEIN SATURDAY 09 NOVEMBER 2024 - Now Monday 11

And as summer approaches, a highveld storm is more likely so about 3-4pm expect the meeting to be interrupted...also lightning becomes more likely to delay meeting...

Wasnt that reason the meeting was postponed , let's see what the circus decides tomorrow 
 

Hoping they Race Monday,  some nice horses on the card 

no updated details since the 8th November on Gallop

We had rain most of the night 🌙 
fingers crossed but guess we should have stuck to Saturday?

It's a lovely card 😊 

Turffontein received 6mm of rainfall overnight.

Pen reading is 24 - Good to soft 

Racing goes ahead as scheduled, and times remain as they were on Saturday.

Full track report  will be disseminated at 8am.

7) 4 Pure Predator e/w

first 2 races should be won by the favourites then we start to look for some value 
 

race 4: I fancy wild at war to beat greaterix 
race 5: Dyce has been top of his game recently and should win again
race 6: Captains christy for dixon and moodley looks some value @ 16/1
race 7: My soul mate is the only filly and they dont have a bad record in this race @ 40/1 could be worth an eachway 

I think the going might be a factor - some horses should prefer it softer - and rain is predicted later - so not a card imo to go broke - 

In the 4th I also much prefer Wild at War - but has not run in the soft; in the 5th I think William Robertson (best this trip and also would not mind it softer) can give the favorite a go; Almond Sea was beaten in the soft, but this is 1000 - so will make them run, although I prefer Time fo Orchids; in the VM Greeting My Master won like a champ last time, but this is 1800 and he might be vulnerable; Main Defender prefers it soft, but 1800 is also a question mark; Atticus Finch probably is the best runner over the trip, but has not run in the soft and Pure Predator also looks value at 20s; in the 8th Command Pilot needs to show he does act in the soft, Whafeef has not won for some time, but his rating is dropping and not without a chance for his new stable imo; in the 9th I think White Pearl has a big chance, while Captain Peg is the one at the weights, but has not won at this track and also need to show she acts in the soft

Enjoy   
 

I think it's a good day for the Hollywood competition 
it should be won ??
