Race 2 Shirleys Time given such an easy last time should have been suspended for it tomorrow if there is any support I'm having a full go

I fancy the chances of Hillbrow (13/2) in R6. It's last 9 runs have been in feature races, the last 4 certainly not the worst form. This may be it's first time in a merit rated handicap. He's two runs on the inside track have yielded two places against decent sorts, so I hope the stable companion will act as the hare to ensure a decent pace as I think this horse will thrive in a fast run race from a good draw.

given such an easy last time please explain this comment along with the comment regarding striker on the vaal thread

James Blunt and Lonely are the Brave will be hard to beat in my Opinion...Taking the double at 4/1

@harry hotspur firstly shirleys time I watched this horses ride last time and let's just say the ride wasn't very vigorous imo not sure why certain times jockeys ride for there lives but other times don't appear to be riding full out once again imo this horse looked full of running to me as for the striker comment every odds on he is riding recently is getting beat make of it what you will but I'm in this game to try make money and if I can make money laying them I will I'm not here to offend anyone just call it as I see it

Will be playing the following doubles and trebles:
Echuka
Raees
Silva Shama
Fortitude

TREBLE Looker X Glasswing X Whatalady

One Mans Dream - working very well and has been crying for this course. Strydom phoned for the ride.

Not normally keen on shorties but for me...

R2 Looker's form line from her debut run look strong and in her follow-up run she finished 3l ahead of Sebonac lto, the latter then subsequently beat a number of others in this field, including Kissimmee who is my clear fancy for the exacta spot.

R3 Wilding was coming from a long way when finishing well on debut but he still has a lot to find with Lonely Arethebrave on lines through Intadokazi and Latus Blitz. The form lines for LATB look fairly decent and a straight exacta LATB x Wilding for me.

R4 My fancy in the race is Jay River but I simply can't bring myself to support a horse drawn widest of 12 over the inside track's 1200, especially on c debut. And that must give Echuka an excellent chance, no denying she has been somewhat disappointing and costly to follow but assuming JR struggles from that draw then I see her as very hard to oppose. I will go with JR over Lucky Mojo for the exacta as the latter may not find the draw advantage sufficient to turn around the 3.25l required.

Win treble...
Looker x Lonely Arethebrave x Echuka

The rest look open and more than a little tricky, I'm trying E/W trebles n up on...
R5 1 Shepherd's Warning
R6 2 Newton Power
R8 8 Tell My Star
R9 3 Silva Shama
R10 8 Like The Willow

Be(s)t of luck to all (tu)

Race 1 James blunt stand in q;)

I'm with you - I have him running to 92 last time, so well in here - fair value; Glasswing the obvious danger.
