Trainer: Candice Bass-Robinson
Jockey: Aldo Domeyer
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 6 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 4/1
She goes up in trip to 1400m in what looks a slighty weaker field than her last couple of starts. She does have to concede a few kilos, but is doing well enough at home. Aldo Domeyer takes the ride and in a competitive race, she has an each-way chance.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:100. Fair latest behind number 7. Stable jockey jumps aboard and can feature.

He has progressed substantially since his debut at this course earlier this month. His work at home is solid and he is fit and ready. He runs in a competitive contest, but is a major player receiving weight. Will be involved in the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Brother to:COLDHARDCASH7g(31: 6, 5). Is 3kgs better off at the weights with number 5 on promising debut run.

Predicted Betting: 33/1
She was in need of her first start in Cape Town. She has taken that run well and the stable are happy with her condition. She tried blinkers in her subsequent work and did well with them so she will run in blinkers on Saturday. It looks a very tough race, but the stable are hoping she can earn for her connections.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:88. Ignore latest. Khumalo takes the ride and chance on consistent prior form.

He has improved at home since his last start when an unlucky runner-up over the course and distance. The stable are very happy with his preparation as he has done everything correctly in his work. This is his stiffest task to date, but the stable are confident of a top run. Big runner.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Gelded 2021.08.03. Best MR:110. Unlucky in latest. Will be competitive.

He is very well in himself at present, infact his trainer believes he has never had him better. He is only a two time winner running in a Grade 1, but the stable believe he has the class to be involved in the finish. Each-way chance.
Winning Form Comment: Rested 10 wks. Best MR:107. Fair latest. Returns from a short-break and chance on attractive prior form.
