Without Question

J: R A Venniker

Third in the Grade 1 Cape Town Met five months ago; upped to 1m4f when seventh of ten (9-2) last month, 4½l behind Aragosta; a big ask given likely stiffer task

Green With Envy

J: C Zackey

Continued his winning streak six weeks ago; upped to 1m2f latest accounting for four of these, getting the job done in the Daily News 2000 by a short head; warrants respect against a high-quality field

Shoemaker

J: D De Gouveia

T: M F De Kock

Upped to 1m1f behind Oriental Charm when beaten just over 1l to finish second four weeks ago in what looked an up-to-scratch Grade 3; solid career strike-rate; this represents a step up in class so looks an unlikely winner

Purple Pitcher

J: P Mxoli

T: R Klaasen

Could not compete with Meridius when seventh four weeks ago when failing to live up to market expectations (Turffontein Standside, dropped to 1m1f); landed the S A Derby in April and is a top-level performer; more on his plate this time but by no means ruled out

Did well to finish first from a poor draw here (1m1f) last month when a just over 1l winner ahead of the reopposing fifth, Shoemaker in what looked a warm Grade 3; should be on the premises despite having more on his plate
