That would put Garrix in front of Eight on Eighteen on the last time they met. 4kg shift for 3 lengths. That is to say if Eight on Eighteen runs in the July. ( Not his mission ). Garrix will also still rise in MR over nest 2 months. See it Again is out of

Lerena To Appeal Gates Crop Incident Findings And Penalties

Ok then what about the horses safety and well being, are horse supposed to be whipped the jockey of a another horse, or bumped and impeded that equates to match fixing, it has no place in our sport. JG/GvN are the guilty offenders here, GL simply let his passion for the game overflow in the heat of the

Lovely. Good Racing, the pool will be closer to 2M

Garrix is currently a 109 - Eight on Eighteen is a 127. If they both ran - Garrix would carry 53 and Eighteen - 57.

That would make Garrix 5 kgs out - more than 10 lengths over the July distance - I suppose after the gelding he could improve.

Even with See it Again he would be 4 kgs

Looking at some of these ratings versus betting - it's crazy - but it's obviously going to change in the next weeks.

8 on 18 carrying 57 makes him currently a couple of lengths in on the handicap - but the Snaith's older horses carrying 54 and 55 could be the ones to look at from his yard - Future Swing and others.

If Sail the Seas gets to 117 - he gets 4 kgs / 8 lengths + from the Met winner - that makes him very interesting based on the Cape Derby result.

Immediately Edge - 101 - what's his route into the race - he didn't run in the SA Classic and got thrashed in the Derby - I suppose it's the MDK effect but he should be much higher in the betting.

Our old friend See it Again has got his 3rd jockey in 6 months - the trainer remains the

Disappointing that Montien, Garrix or Master Redoute (my pre-entry fancy) have not been entered.
Still look forward to the build up and the final field announcement.
Looking at the entries even now it seems there will be some very disappointed connections when this is made.
Why has Strydom been taken off See It

Lerena To Appeal Gates Crop Incident Findings And Penalties

IN EVERY SPORT ...NOTE !! You have the right to appeal...he knows accepts guilt BUT he has the right to appeal severity .. and more than likely what transpired between him and gates... not cut and dry ...It's his choice no matter who does not like it. Would any one commenting appeal against a 100 k fine for instance ..absolutely every one would. So that's his

What a joke !!! Garrix has the favourites stone cold on the weights and not even entered ??? Would like to hear the logic on that decision from the connections. Something does not make sense here
