A chance to dodge hard times with world pools

There are many ways to make money in a tough economy. The best bet is to gamble. On Saturday, we are offered a World Pools opportunity on the King George VI race meeting at Ascot in the UK. This Saturday Kenilworth will host the last Western Cape fixture of the season. Next weekend, the World Pool offers are at Greyville Racecourse. There are nine races open to punters around the world. The Pick 6 is likely to reach R12-million, while the Quartet pool on Mercury Sprint will be about R3- million. It is bizarrely “supporting” the main event, Grade 3 Gold Cup.

Final Fling Stakes (Kenilworth Race 6): 10 Young Love, 8 Golden Dah, 3 Musical Glitch, 4 So Flawless.

Champagne Stakes (Kenilworth Race 7): 8 Sonic Burst, 3 Major Attraction, 7 Fusillade, 1 Kitty Cat Chat.

King George VI is in Ascot Race 4. Mishriff, Emily Upjohn, Torquator Tasso, Westover are the other competitors.
