Think Serino will go close .

Barring accidents and suspensions, Fourie very hard to beat while he can pick up 100+ in PE each season.

Have not seen betting but Richard must be a cert 

Early days but certainly the focused jocks are;  Zackey - Fourie - Moodley

My guess is that Zackey will go all out to have an exceptional season and possibly aiming at Hong Kong. Moodley definitely laying the groundwork for having a go at the title, if not this season then next. 

Fourie focused and flying along, will wait to see how the season plays out with him not having first choice of the Snaith mounts. I dont think it will play a massive role as most trainers and owners will be trying to book him.

Don't write off Murray who is just getting better at each course as he travels. Habib will win plenty in JHB, that being his main focus.
