Twice As Wild

J: K A Brewer

T: G J Maroun

On a losing run and form has been up and down of late; finished in front of two of these in a handicap two weeks ago here over 6f when beaten 1½l into second at 33-1; handicapper has had his say; ought to be on the premises if confirming promise shown last time

Rio's Kiss

J: P Mxoli

T: G J Maroun

Has had lots of chances since last win and has usually offered little in recent outings; beaten 4l when seventh of ten but didn't run badly at 11-2 at Vaal Classic last week; slightly higher rating to contend with; facing a tougher assignment this time, others make more appeal

This should be a competitive affair but the verdict goes to SIBERIAN STEEL. Twice As Wild is respected, however, is off a much higher mark than last time, and Dontshootthebarman is a major contender. South Boy is beginning to look exposed.
