Why does he change to a "sing song" when talking about horse? Surely this is not the way he has an ordinary conversation.

Cant be Fingers
Yet his dad is tops but schooling will do him good if he can accept that

@Bayern i agree with you on Majmu although i felt she still needs

if we associate head carriage with fitness

Doesn't look like there is any rain about 360 degrees around where I stay (+-50kms north of Durban)...ground hard, grass brown to grey, water restrictions in place...

The grass course will be in a terrible state by next week as water restrictions mean they will not be able to irrigate...

Is therr a video on the panel discussion after the gallops?
Pls post?
Or do tell what panel thinks

According to Accuweather a few showers is expected 26,27,29,30 June 2015 and on 2,3 July 2015.

@naresh...the clouds have come and then the wind gets up to push it away...things really really dire on the North Coast...there were 3 drops of rain one morning at 2 but not even a sniff of more in the last 2 months...dams Like Hazelmere and Pringle below 30% and likely to last only another 30-60 days so restrictions already in place...may go as low as 100/ltrs per household and if that does not help, only water will be supplied via tankers...

Rain predicted from Next Tuesday

Was blown away by The Conglomerate's gallop - what an action

Futura looks in top notch condition

Kolkata caught the eye - big runner in gold vase

Definately a machine... But perhaps not an Ice Machine :whistle:

When is french navy galloping

Power Kings gallop or should i say trot was very disappointing, we haven't seen the horse since the Greyville 1900 and then a trot today which showed very little. The comment in the Computaform is "slow-ease-distress" so today's trot didn't help at all. I liked this horse as a value bet but now i don't know if i will get a run for my money.

I put this horse in the same group as Helderberg Blue, Dynamic & Dynastic Power, none of which are going to be world famous but at the weights could run a place at decent odds.

I would like Dean to comment at some stage on why the work was so sedate today.......

A comment from Anton would be nice.

He was smiling from ear to ear during his gallop with The Conglomerate
