Hewitson set to win again
Samarra can be first winner for Trainer Stephen Lerena
TAB have announced three Pick 6 carryovers this weekend, giving punters great chances to win big. The “Pick 6 Weekend” is scheduled to kick off at 2.10pm at Fairview today with the opening leg of the Pick 6 with a R290 746 carryover and an estimated pool of R1-million.
The weekend ends at Greyville on Sunday with a R200 000 carryover and a pool estimated to reach R1.7-million.
Not one to be easily outdone, Turffontein will up the ante on Saturday by producing what is expected to be the biggest Pick 6 pool of the weekend – starting with a R300 000 carryover and expected to reach a final pool worth a mind-boggling R1.9-million.
The competitive nature of the Turffontein card will most likely result in the estimate being surpassed so, get on!
There is no carryover Pick 6 at the weekend’s other meeting at Durbanville.
over Look 1800m no in further Race on the 7, than the Standside Drum the Sean track. Star Tarry-trained Handicap He is the (Listed) model Shenanigans of consistency with an encouraging record that boasts a third, a second and three victories from six outings. This Dynasty colt looked a top-notch animal in his latest effort when impressively justifying 16-10 favouritism in a 1700m contest, defeating Shogun by a length at the Vaal. It was a victory Lyle Hewitson will never forget, as it marked the day he surpassed Gavin Lerena’s all-time record for riding 284 winners as an apprentice.
Shenanigans is getting better and better with each outing and, if his last effort is any indication he could prove far better than his merit rating of 89. Much is in the four-year-old’s favour: an advantageous No 6 draw and a light 53.5kg on his back – making him even harder to oppose
On form, Mike de Kock-trained Secret Captain should pose as the obvious danger. He returned to form in his last run when producing a devastating turn of foot in the dying stages – beaten a noteworthy whisker of 0.10 lengths into second by stable companion Fareeq.
it The hard but pair Fareeq repeat renew will that rivalry find last performance because he will have to give Secret Captain 1.5kg and, jumps from the widest draw of all as opposed to Secret Captain’s perfect No 1 draw. For Quartets float Shenanigans and Secret Captain with Fareeq and Kilrain.
