Kenilworth Wednesday

I like the Kannemeyer Neisius doube to place / win R7#4 & R8#4 Stormy affair & Regal Man

Greg, surely you had to have lumbered the pot 20 times at least today......you are on fire on HB son!!!!

Well done by voorbaats!

Mombasa fell in a heap that last bit. These Tiger Ridges seem to battle with the mile, I could almost have been watching Kavanagh again.

Spot on magic, the same could be said for Tigers joy in the 5th, even though she could have needed the run slightly.

You never can tell though as breeders tend to lean towards early speed so if the right stamina laden mating is found he could still throw a true classic horse?

Any stallion can conceivably throw a stayer to a staying mare. Years ago there was a filly by Harry Hotspur named Danseuse Classique who nearly won the Gold Cup! The opposite can happen - staying sire throwing sprinters to a sprinting mare. There was a Hobnob horse in Joburg years ago (I forget his name) who didn't go a yard further than 1000m. At the end of his career they got desperate and ran him over 2600m or something. I think he finished two days later.

If memory serves that hobnob ran in predominantly white colours with black trim, but I'm just going out on a limb here. Could have been trained by either David Ferarris or perhaps Eugene Cox?

....and thats why I'm completely facinated and intrigued by this game. If I only knew at 18 what I know now

Neither of those trainers rings a bell, but my creaking brain informs me that the horse's name was Huntersvlei.

I may have been thinking of another completely, but cannot remember which sock goes on which foot for the most part

I'll go with your choice.

There may have been more than one. It happens - people sometimes forget that horses also have two parents,

Well done Greggo!!!!
Need the german horse to run well in the last

Was greener than an Irish field. Can only improve, rrunning again on Met day (stronger field, though),.
