Rachel’s Left Hook – Then Gavin Cuts Muzi Lead With Treble

I dont think based on factual data that Muzi would be able to keep up with Lerenas strike rate. If we compared them on the equal number of runs. Lerena wins all day everyday. A man that doesnt complain if he gets a good ride or not, he just gets on with the business. Got his nose bust and what he did? He responded on the track. Go on Gavin show them the way you

Steyn Mare Digs Deep In Thriller

Hey Geoff, there must have been a few shrew punters out there that picked them , many like myself play to beat the fancied horses
Steyns horse had to have a chance, good form and draw
I took a small quarter and put 4,5 for first and fancied the van Zyl runner as the Ken 1200 into the south Easter is a tough race
So only put it in for 3rd and 4th
That's

Rachel’s Left Hook – Then Gavin Cuts Muzi Lead With Treble

Rachel showed how much she has matured as a jockey. She proved that she will not be intimidated with her brave ride on Happy Fortune. I tipped on this platform a few months ago that she would ride a hundred winners plus this season. Make that
