As you suggest, I'm now using:
if ($this->Item->validates() && $this->Item->save($this->data)) {
(Note that this hack only works when I leave out the $this->Item-

As I mentioned before, this would not be required as save only saves
when it passes validation.

I did not setup validation rules.
The underlying problem is that I only want two fields to be validated
if another field has a certain value.
Is it possible to add validation rules 'on the fly'?
