[Monkey101]

Anyone placing any bets? Any inside info you care to share?
I will be putting my money on Bold Silvano for a Win.

River Jetez for the win and a swinger with River Jetez and Pocket Power. And then I'll do a PA for the day too

 

[killadoob]

River jetez how come? What are your thoughts?

Pocket power could be over the hill hey

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

River Jetez coz of a birdie ......

 

[Kosmik]

You won't get much on that swinger

Front page of this week's Post newspaper - they've been right the last two years.

 

[Mephisto_Helix]

Actually gonna go for a Swinger Boxed with Pocket Power, River Jetez, Goat and Fort Vogue ..... the same 4 I have in my PA for that leg

 

[killadoob]

Bank river jetez with the field in a quartet i reckon for 50%?

How much would that cost?

 

[D3x!]

Aslan ftw

 

[killadoob]

How much would that cost?

Very expensive like 3k but i decided rather to go for 20% which is 1162.50. Rather spend that 2k saving on a soccer4 .

haha, I won nothing this year ... first time in 3 years, pffft. My mom though, as usual, wins money at every bloody July (dunno why I don't mirror her bets). She played R50 as always, and won back R150 plus coz she had places on Orbison

I can't post any pics because I wasn't at the race course .

R8,60 for a win, damn! Awesome odds, there must have been a lot of noobs there.

Many people who frequent the July have very little interest in the actual horses. These people will place bets based on the colour of the horse, whether they like it's name, or merely by picking a number.
