Fish Eagle

J: M V'Rensburg

T: C Binda

Has been knocking on the door and a number of recent efforts here offer plenty of encouragement; finished in front of Labrausco and Magic Prince in a maiden plate last month when beaten just under 3l to finish second at Turffontein Inside; if stepping up from most recent effort needs to be respected

Insightful

Comfortably beaten into ninth (this distance Turffontein Standside, maiden plate) in November; previous run was disappointing, but finished runner-up two starts back; he should go close

T: G J Maroun

Without a win after 19 attempts; split Magic Prince and Fish Eagle (maiden plate) when beaten 3l into third at 50-1 (Turffontein Inside) 18 days ago and dropped back to this trip; if stepping up from most recent effort should prove competitive

Magic Prince

J: R Simons

Not far behind two of these rivals (maiden plate) over this distance when fourth of 11 (9-2) at Turffontein Inside last month; blinkers fitted for the first time; entitled to respect

Smart Pomodoro

Last of nine in a maiden plate latest (over 7f here); hard to make a case for him as headgear will need to have a dramatic effect

Fish Eagle competes off the back of some good runs, and Insightful holds claims if his latest performance can be forgiven. However, PONTIAC looks the one to back. He is capable of taking the next step after finding only one too good on his debut and can confirm superiority with Sagan and Elusive Justice who were behind him last time.
