Punters benefit weekend at last?

 Whether the weather is hot or whether the weather be not, that cannot be the question, becAUS

e with all the rain cAUSing havoc for the punting public you can only be positive that money is to be made with some serious selections this weekend.....writes Raymond K Smith.

With a focus on Saturday at Turffontein, as the first clash and having recovered from the Big Race day last weekend the analyses unearthed a possible punters benefit weekend. The assumption is based on FLIRTATION, you cannot flirt without a target audience and this filly has the makings of a serious race horse, not becAUS

e she won both her track appearances with merit but becAUSe it has been quite a while since we have witness the emergence of a star filly that finishes off her races with flirtatious ease. My punting pals Her Majesty Queen Mira has quality written all over her racing efforts but she will have to deal with a lady that turns heads in her direction whether the Miss World contestants could appear in her presence. You might assume that I have fallen in love with my descriptive observation but you cannot deny me my day of pronouncing the presence of our future champion filly. Should I be off in analyses then FLYTE could cAUSe a fright but that’s all she can do.

Second on the punters benefit card is GALILEO’S GALAXY, who has yet to run a bad race, and with all the recent reference points indicating that there might be better ones around, you take that view with a pinch of salt as this is as close as you will get to reaching punting stardom in the galaxy of cash cows. PIERRE JOURDAN needed his last run but will need many more before he will pass the “GALAXY”, as I have no doubt that we have not seen the best of this equine’s talent and if he wins by a couple of lengths it will not be an unwelcome surprise.

Sunday at Turffontein will have a separate article for the day so keep your connection permanent.
