Cabinet Shuffle

J: C Maujean

Chocolate Bomb

J: J P v'd Merwe

Raven Black

J: K Matsunyane

Progressing at a fair rate and lightly raced for age; accounted for Black Egret when an easy winner (Vaal Classic) six months ago; returns from a layoff; should figure despite moving up in class

Hithemhardsunshine

J: A Mgudlwa

A good career strike-rate; behind King Of The Gauls 20 days ago when only just held (11-2) here over 5f; facing a tougher assignment this time, unlikely to trouble the principals

Slim Jannie

J: S Khumalo

King Of The Gauls

Donquerari

J: M Thackeray

T: L W Goosen

Third of nine 20 days ago here over 5f, behind the reopposing King Of The Gauls; has strung together a series of consistent efforts and has winning form at this course; can be taken on given likely stiffer task

Raven Black is likely to attract market support, and King Of The Gauls could have a say. However, CLIFFHANGER is the recommendation. He can enhance his CD record.
