Has won here before but has had lots of chances since last win; never landed a blow when seventh of 11 in a handicap (Turffontein Standside) in returning blinkers (dropped back to 1m1f) New Year's Eve; looks no easy task

Don't Look Back

J: N Klink

T: S J Gray

A long time since his last win and no wins at this trip; last of eight (handicap) in November (Greyville Polytrack); makes his debut for new trainer; this represents a step up in class so passed over

This looks a tight affair on the figures but NEBRAAS is worth siding with. He has been a winner here. Our Coys can give the selection a headache, Set The Standard needs to bounce back from a below-par performance, and Bold Resolve is one to consider.
