Steyn 3yo Will Stay In Cape For Winter

What has transparency got to do with anything - the horse was not entered for the July last Friday - that decision would not have been taken on Thursday - right - probably awhile

Mr. Editor why don't you show us the reason why race 1 yesterday at Hollywoodbets Greyville was run over 20 minutes past the advertised time and therefore every race after that was late ..It is in the stipes report for race 1 yesterday ..This sums up where racing is at present ..Remember we rely on overseas betting on our races to contribute towards income for our racing

Thanks Fredrick. This proves my point. Why is this kind of info not made available for our poor punters in Gauteng. I believe they all need to start using X to share info like this with the public as soon as the info is

🙂 Hey Sharp George

John is right this time...

I think Wolf Power is also Hilton Witz's all time favorite maybe even William Milkovitch
Now these are BIG names in SA, very high Merit Ratings

John won't like my July tip, he said that horse will not win a Gr1 ever again 🙂 Add the jockey that only converts 'penalty kicks' in

How refreshing it is to read "we stuffed up". Sometimes that's all it takes to claim back credibility. Nobody is perfect, so stop acting like you are. I'm looking at you NHA, Handicappers, Stipes.
Good on you Mr. Rodrigues. Detection failed but root cause still sits with the

Frankie Zackey... If anyone is disappointed it's me,,I really believed that he'll be a massive runner in the July...Hearing from one of the connections just recently,, they've decided to go a different route,,and if things happen to map out as planned,, then there's a possibility that they might be thinking of a overseas campaign...From my side i can only wish them the very best of luck going

Woodruff Magic Prevails At Hollywoodbets Scottsville

Taking nothing away from the winner but you have to feel for the connections of the 2nd horse as the Poinsettia has forever been at weight for age plus penalties but clearly this year the new boys on the block have decided to make natal the handicap region while preserving cape as the Wfa region...No announcement nothing about this and i don't expect the press to pick up on this ...There is way too much fingering with the race program and this has been going on for decades now and I'm surprised the breeders association do not make a noise about it as it affects the stud book in no uncertain terms...Just this morning i was watching replays of empress club firstly beating the colts in the SA guineas and then a few weeks later beating the fillies in the fillies guineas in the natal season ..The entire feature program needs a major overhaul as this clumping of features on one day is rubbish and takes away horses achieving a lot more at the top
