He has fair recent form lines to his credit. He gets the services of 2.5kgs claiming apprentice Gabriel Pieterse which will help his cause as he has work to do on official ratings. It is a big field, but he is doing well and can run into the first three.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:87. Fair latest in KZN. Big runner on previous form.

Draw: 4 (8 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 3/1
The horse that finished second in his last outing has come out and won a Grade 2 since. It is a small, but competitive field. The 1000m may be on the sharp side for him, but he gets the services of S’manga Khumalo. He is expected to run a good race with a small winning chance.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:102. The 2nd horse in latest has won since. Respect.

Breeding: Dynasty – Divine Nymph by Al Mufti (USA)
Trainer: Brett Crawford
Jockey: Keagan de Melo
Wgt: 58.0kg
Draw: 9 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
Her last outing was over a distance short of her best. She is doing well at home and returns to the 1400m. A true run race is expected and with Keagan de Melo in the saddle, she should have an each way chance.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:79. Moderate handicap debut over shorter. Prefers this distance and trainers only runner.
