RACE 1
ICE CAP produced a promising local debut effort when second over this C&D. She cost herself winning that day as she hung inwards in the final 200m. The daughter of Gold Standard would have come on from the run and if keeping on a straight line, she can go one better.
QUEEN OFTHE PALACE finished 0.1 lengths behind the top choice last time. The pair meet on the same weight terms today and there should not be much separating the pair at the finish.
FANTASY GIRL has finished third in her last three starts. She should have finished closer to the winner last time as she was awkwardly placed at the 150m mark and she had to be eased at the 100m mark. With a bit of luck in running, she should be involved in the fight to the finish.
RACE 2
GOLDEN GALLANT showed massive improvement when second in his local debut over this C&D. He raced from a handy position, moved up well before getting caught late by James Fitzjames. The son of Gold Standard would have come on from the run and with luck in running, he can go one better.
CORAL CREEK finished 0.5 lengths behind the top choice last time. He is 2kgs worse off at the weights today and may battle to turn the form around.
LENNOXTOWN was a tad disappointing in his last start over 1200m on the turf. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. If finding the form of his debut outing, he can finish in the placings.
RACE 3
CHERE FOR ME finished 2.75 lengths behind ESSENTIAL last time. She is 3kgs better off at the weights today and there should not be much separating the pair at the finish. She finished 1.85 lengths behind STRANGE MAGIC in her penultimate run. She is 6.5kgs better off at the weights today and should turn the form around. Luyolo Mxothwa is booked to ride and he may be able to coax that little bit extra out of her where it matters most.
ESSENTIAL was not beaten far in the Listed East Cape Paddock Stakes. She finished third in her only C&D attempt. Should the top choice fluff her lines, she may be the one to pick up the pieces.
MONTELENA stayed on when second over 1200m on this course. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth that day has come out and won since. The daughter of The United States will be mowing down the frontrunners.
RACE 4
GIMME’S LASSIE has consistent form lines to her credit. She stayed on when fifth over this distance on the turf last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth that day has come out and won since. She finished third in her only attempt on this course. The daughter of Gimmethegreenlight drops in class and she can return to winning ways.
AADEHYA stayed on when fifth over 1000m last time. He has won twice, finished second twice and third once from seven starts on this course. He will strip a much fitter horse and should be the first male past the post.
ABOUND was beaten under a length over 1200m on this course last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. He will be at peak fitness for this outing and from pole position, he may be hard to peg back.
Race 5
BETHEL showed good speed over this C&D last time but was caught late by Articuno. He would have come on from the run and should strip much fitter. The 6yo gelding takes a drop in class and he will be hard to catch.
NOTORIX finished 3.1 lengths behind the top choice last time. He is only 0.5kgs better off at the weights today which is not enough for the tables to be turned. If finding the form of his penultimate run, he should pose a massive threat.
LADY CRUSADE won a game race in her last start over 1100m on this course. The tongue-tie has done the trick on the daughter of Crusade. She should give the males a good run for their money.
Race 6
VALERIAS DREAM showed very good improvement in her local debut effort over this C&D. She set the pace before getting caught late by My Best Shot. The daughter of Querari is back against her own sex and she may be the one to side with.
CABARET is the stable companion of the top selection. She has won once and finished second once from as many starts on this course. With a bit of luck from the widest draw, she should pose a massive threat.
CONCERTO returns from a 14-week break which would have done her the world of good. She has won once, finished second twice and third once from seven starts on this course. If not in need of this outing, she should have a say in the outcome of this contest.
RACE 7
SLIM JANNIE finished 1.5 lengths behind LEDELL’S ECHO in his last start. He is 3.5kgs better off at the weights today and that should be enough for the tables to be turned. Two of his six career victories have come over this C&D. With a bit of luck from his awkward draw of nine, he may find himself in the winner’s enclosure.
KING REGENT hails from the visiting Glen Kotzen stable. He took the lead at the 200m mark last time before getting caught late. He has won twice from three starts over this distance. If all went well with his travels, he should throw out a big challenge to the top choice.
LEDELL’S ECHO fought hard when second over 1000m on this course last time. He would have come on from the run and should strip much fitter. From pole position, he should be involved at the finish.
RACE 8
GOLDEN LINK was not disgraced when sixth in the Listed Champion Juvenile Stakes last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. The son of Gold Standard should love the rise to the mile. He is a horse with ability and can return to winning ways.
MY BESTIE raced from a handy position over this distance at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth last time and stayed on to finish third. He finished second in his only C&D attempt. He is likely to be settled near the rear of the field and will be mowing down the frontrunners.
FATEFUL DAY has finished third in his last two starts over this distance. He has cracked pole position and despite his big mass, he should be competitive
