Derby take Hawaam out and u have a very crap field
Oaks is a very poor field
Horse Chestnut top field

Did Gavin choose Cascapedia or did he have to ride?

Mauritzfontein/Wilgerbosdrift sponsored jock.. hence Cascapedia ride

Mounts for Superman and Lyle?

Does anyone else think that Zillzaal will get a lot closer to Hawaam over this longer distance ?

Just a recap :-
