He has been disappointing in both his efforts in the Eastern Cape. The son of Canford Cliffs is working very well heading into this contest. He steps up to 1900m, and we are hoping for improvement.

She has improved since relocating to the Eastern Cape. The stable has opted to fit her with blinkers, and we are hoping that the headgear helps her stay focused. With luck from her awkward draw, she can run well.
Winning Form Comment: Blinkers ON. Best MR:70. Meets Number 1 on identical weight terms. Chance with luck.

He held on where it mattered most to win his last start over this course and distance. The son of Vercingetorix is in a good space and jumps from Barrier Five. SplashOut-sponsored Jockey Callan Murray rides and he should produce another honest performance.
