FEARLESS WARRIOR...

Clouds Unfold

Atc

Fearless warrior
Dutch Phillip
One world
Brave move

Stand in the queue....

One world will get beat tomorrow...

Chimichuri on steak hmmm..what a combo!! :blink: But that's not the point :lol:

Chimichuri run..so National park beat the banker of the day by 5.25 lengths...maybe it just wasn't the horses day...pace was off running wide shifted and finished second best...wasn't a terrible run...I think people are discouraged more because national park knocked them out their pick6...now chimichuri run becomes a bad horse because it was one of the bankers

Last race 1600m Kenilworth only beaten 0.50 of a length...given the circumstances the horse traveled all the way from Johannesburg to Capetown and was first time running in Kenilworth... IF ONE WORLD BEAT CHIMICHURI RUN LIKE HOW NATIONAL PARK DID!! THEN I WOULD FOR SURE SAY RACE OVER ONE WORLD ALL THE WAY

CHIMICHURI RUN IS MORE RELAXED NOW HAVING SETTLED INTO THE NEW ENVIRONMENT AND WILL RUN A CRACKER TOMORROW

ONE WORLD WILL SET PACE LIKE ALWAYS AND CHIMICHURI RUN WILL BE WAITING TO POUNCE AND WIN BY 2-3 LENGTHS

1/1 One World looks a fair punt

Majestic Mozart to run the places and swinger

Race 5 - Dutch Phillip 4/1

A bit disappointing last time but on his day, he's a top sprinter. 3rd run after rest now and blinkers on should sharpen him up. If they go very fast and they probably should, he will be catching them.


Cape Fillies Guineas - Front and Centre 18/10

I took notice of this one after her second race when she showed an impressive turn of foot on her handicap debut. I thought she'd win the WC fillies championship but obviously things went wrong and she was scratched. Then she came back and won like a machine - which was expected of her. Marcus seemed extremely confident in her abilities after the last win and I think she's ready to run a big one. Crawford hasn't won race in a while and he'll be eager to pull it off. Good draw, the mile will suit her down to the ground - Let's hope she's special.

Just as a side note, it was extremely hard to bypass Clouds Unfold as I also really rate her and I think its a 2 horse race. Boxed exacta would be a good bet as well.


Cape Guineas - Twist of Fate 10/1, Majestic Mozart 40/1


Twist of fate was not ridden very well last time IMO, found a bit of traffic when trying to make his run and by that time, the front two had gotten away. The switch to the long run-in will make a huge difference, he's a powerful galloper and in my opinion, should be ridden right up there with the pace.
I think today he will give One World much more to think about today.

I was very surprised to see Majestic Mozart open up at 40/1. Yes, its short for him still but if you look at his last two runs - you can see he's right up there with this sort of calibre. Absolutely had no luck in the RTR race. Didn't get in early, and had to come from a long way off them and really finished off well. He will love the long run-in and even though we won't have a strong pace, he's definitely going to be flying at them late.


Race 9 - Eyes Wide Open 3/1

Dual grade 1 winner and probably at his best on the Summer Course where the best win of his career came against the VDJ winner Do It Again. That first run behind Rainbow Bridge was a good pipe opener and he should have come on from that. This isn't his peak run but he should be fit enough to go close in this field - he should be sitting handy and gradually wear down the leader, similar to his derby win.

Brett’s tips

SOQRAT
TAP O' NOTH

Van Halen sees out the trip is a good place bet and quartet floater

How I wonder / eyes wide open / go cowboy

A great days racing. Warm sunny day, expect the southeaster to pick up this afternoon (headwind). Long run in will make for fairer racing.
Race 1: No selection
Race 2: Snapscan good debut and the one to beat. Helenika has problems but a year older and so well in at the weights the danger. Trap Queen, Crusade’s Promise and Petit Bijou for the quartet.
Race 3: Very open. Anglet has had two good runs back in CT and is first choice. Rocket Girl good form before last run and is the main danger, but quite a few with chances.
Race 4: All in Line has run fair races from horrible draws and must go close here. How I Wonder improving and will fight it out. GGs Dynasty has been backed but must improve to beat the other two.
Race 5: Very difficult. My shortlist for the exotics 1, 2,4,5,7,8,10
Race 6: Clouds Unfold my first choice. Front and Centre on the up and the main danger. Temple Grafin and Ghaala good form but wide draws. Silvano’s Pride improved last time and could surprise.
Helen’s Ideal disappointing last two but had excuses. Will enjoy this track and trip and I’m hoping that she can show that she is a Gr1 filly today.
Race 7: One World my choice. Chimichuri Run will again give him cheek. Soqrat can’t be ignored.
Race 8: Tricky race and I don’t think that 16/10 is value for Brave Move although she is the form runner. Hastagyolo is very classy and I think can win this. All of 1,5,,6.7 could surprise.
Race 9: Eyes Wide Open is my first choice here, and he will shorten in the Met betting if he wins, and his 16/1 for the Met is generous. Tap O Noth is top class and will fight it out. Milton will ensure a good pace but hopefully they won’t let him get away by too far this time. Made to Conquer is decent and will have come on from his previous but I prefer the top two.
Race 10: An open race with all of 3,4,5,6,7,9,15 possible. We have Parade March running and he has a strong ew chance.
My other runner Mist of Time is improving, but still needs to strengthen up. Outside place chance.
