Trainer: Mike and Mathew de Kock
Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 13 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He has good consistent form lines to his credit. The son of Buffalo Bill Cody steps up to 1600m for the first time. He is doing very well at home, but the obvious concern is the widest barrier position. With luck in running and if seeing out the extra distance on offer, we are hoping for a big run.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:106. Meets number 12 on the same weight terms. Drawn widest.

Jockey: Callan Murray
Wgt: 60.0kg
Draw: 10 (13 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He broke the course record over 1450m on the Vaal Classic course last time. SplashOut-sponsored Jockey Callan Murray will have to use his early gate speed to overcome the wide draw. He is doing very well at home, and we are hoping for a positive run.
Winning Form Comment: Gelded 2025.07.14. Best MR:105. Broke the course record last time. Murray retains.

Jockey: #Rachel Venniker -1.5kg
Wgt: 56.0kg
Draw: 1 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 10/1
He is doing very well at home. The son of New Predator jumps from pole position and Rachel Venniker will take the 1.5kgs off his back. Callmegetrix will be a hard horse to beat at the weights. We are hoping to see him involved at the finish.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:112. Decent form. Could upset if finding form of Betway Summer Cup run.

Jockey: Sean Veale
Wgt: 54.0kg
Draw: 9 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 20/1
He was disappointing in his last start in the Listed 4Racing Wolf Power 1600. The stable has opted to fit him with cheekpieces, and we are hoping that the equipment keeps his mind on the task at hand. The son of Coup De Grace is doing nicely at home, and with luck in running, we are hoping to see him find a form return.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:120. Tries cheekpieces. Could improve to find a place.

He followed up his maiden win with a good fourth-place finish over 1700m at the Vaal. He is doing very well at home. The son of Querari should be ideally suited to this distance. With a bit of luck from his awkward draw of eight, he should be competitive.
