Upped to this trip in a handicap four weeks ago at Turffontein Standside when beaten just under 5l; a course winner but yet to win over 1m1f; the assessor relents a little; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role despite this looking a little easier than last time

Verdict

This is a tricky puzzle to solve. Breeze Over could have a say while Celestial City may have his stamina stretched over this trip. However, TOFFAS gets the vote. He didn't do much wrong last time (form has been boosted since) and although behind Celestial City and Climate Control four weeks ago, is taken to overturn those placings.
