Horse Racing Bets Saturday 30th December 2017

Early coverage is from South Africa on ATTHERACES and with Lingfield the only other ATR track with a card today, it looks like the whole meeting will be shown live.

10.30 Turffontein - Actually don't like the top 2 ( especially at the prices ) so going with 3 instead and looking for the Miracle Forecast -

ROYAL PURSUIT at 14's
PIUS OIL at 16's
ICARUS FLIGHT ( Rested and gelded since OK debut run and possible improver at 50's )

11.05 Turffontein - Again going with 3 -

SARAGON at 12's
CHANTILLY LANE at 25's
OCEANS PRIDE at 66's.


11.40 Turffontein - ALI PASHA at 14's and TURF PATROL at 66's.


12.15 Turffontein - 3 real " rags " in this one -

DIVA FAUSTINA at 25's
OLD OAK at 40's
PETITE AIME at 100's

12.50 Turffontein - REDBERRY LANE - 3rd run back off a lengthy break and both previous efforts were decent 2nd's. Should be at peak finess today and hard to ignore at 7/2.

1.25 Turffontein - FAVOURS PRIDE - Bits and pieces of for has this one going close, but to be honest, this bet is mainly a price thing as the early 12's simply looks too big.

2.00 Turffontein - ANGEL'S POWER - Drop back to 5f looks fine and holds enough form to go close at 8's.

2.35 Turffontein - BRIGHT BRONTE - Had been on the go a while and last 2 runs suggested a break was necessary. Hopefully will come back refreshed and chance at 9's with Pierre Strydom booked.

12.50 Taunton - SPARKY'S SPIRIT - IMO the most likely " rag " at 100's.

2.20 Lingfield - EXSPECTATION - Not lived up to expectations ( pun intended ) yet, but is still a lightly raced 3yo and the drop back in trip today will suit. EW shout at 20's

2.55 Lingfield - BARLE - Won a couple of Class 2 handicaps over C&D two years ago and now on a very handy mark. Should be getting involved at 5's.

3.30 Lingfield - PINK RIBBON - Two time winner at the track and was a recent winner over at Wolverhampton. Bit quiet in 2 subsequent runners, but bit of money around today and capable of getting involved at 9's.
