Var’s Group 1 Rush!
It is obvious that we are nearing the end of a long hard season judging by the threadbare supporting bill on today’s Clairwood card. Even the most diehard punters would have found the fields generally lacking in quality and quantity and the afternoon’s entertainment was rather flattered by the healthy Pick Six pool of R2,8 million, which benefitted from a sizeable carryover. The chasm between the superb Grade 1 race and the six maiden plates on the card is a wide one and one wonders whether we should be looking to the trainers or the race programmers for answers and explanations?
