Wind Water

J: K Matsunyane

T: J J Van Vuuren

Not disgraced when fifth (Vaal Classic) in January running over this trip; no wins at this distance; must hope refitting of blinkers (absent last time) will help but others more likely

Prophet

J: M V'Rensburg

T: C Spies

Has won here before but on a losing run; soundly beaten when tenth in a handicap two weeks ago (Turffontein Standside) with blinkers refitted, 9l behind Halberdier; competes off a lower mark; with more on his plate easily dismissed

Woman Of Power

J: C Zackey

T: M F De Kock

Has won here before; fair effort (beaten 2½l) over this distance (fillies handicap) last month (Turffontein Standside); a next-time-out winner advertised the form; rates a likely contender despite being up in class

Bold Act

J: M K Katjedi

T: M F De Kock

Finished last of nine three weeks ago (Vaal Classic); has won here in the past but has not been in the winners' enclosure for a while now; dropping in the ratings; this demands more than last time so unlikely to pose a threat

Halberdier
