The Corona Virus has brought the sporting calendar to its knees. In this edition of our Daily Diary we have a look at the Varsity Cup Rugby which at the time of writing is still priced up and may go ahead behind closed doors. At this point local Horse Racing also appears to be going ahead.
RUGBY
There are 4 Varsity Cup Matches scheduled to take place on Monday at 19:00 with the televised fixture being NWU against Maties.
Official announcements from the Varsity Cup are hard to come by, but Social Media suggests that at least one of the games will be played behind closed doors.
Let’s have a quick look at the Outright Betting where Maties have shortened to 4/10 with Tuks 4/1, Ikeys 11/2 and you can get 6/1 Wits and 150/1 and better the balance.

Onto the matches themselves and Maties are (-28.5) away at NWU and although they haven’t been on top form the last couple of weeks we have to say that the minus could be the play here.

UJ are at home to UWC and are (-6.5) while CUT are at home to Wits and are underdogs at (+4.5) points. The UCT Ikeys who performed so well against Maties last week are (-20.5) at home to the Shimlas.

HORSE RACING
Local Horse Racing takes place at the Flamingo Park Track in Kimberley, a 10 race card set to start at 12:10 and finishing at 16:40.
It is not clear to us at the time of writing whether this meeting will constitute a gathering of over 100 people and cynics may argue that it will most certainly not. Assuming it goes ahead punters will be looking for Cherry Tomatoes, Horse No. 1 in the opener to get them off to a good start at 16/10 and the Pick Six looks pretty tough to catch with some open races although True Words, Horse No. 1 in Race 7 will be a popular banker at 9/10 although it is set to carry a massive 64 kilograms. The 8th Race also has an odds on favourite in Mambo Lyric, currently priced at 17/20 and our best bet on the card comes in Race 10, Sheza Rockstar, the Horse No. 1 priced at 33/10.
