Apprentice Philasande Mxoli rides Poppycock in Race 7 today
Jimmy The Rich writes that Sergei from the in-form Paul Peter stable could be the one to close off the meeting.
He raced from a handy position last time, but found one too good in the form of Techno Savvy. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth that day has come out and won since.
He does not meet the strongest field this afternoon and can shed his maiden tag from pole position.
Tyrone Zackey sends out Poppycock in Race 7 and he is currently trading at around 16/1 with Hollywoodbets.
He finished 3.95 lengths behind Romeo’s Magic last time. He is 6.5kgs better off at the weights today and should finish closer as a result.
He is having his second run after a rest and should strip much fitter. With a bit of luck in running, he may be the one to cause the upset.
Gavin Lerena is not riding today as he is medically indisposed.
The false rail is set at zero on the back straight and bend with a 2m spur at the 500m mark.
