Unable to land a blow when sixth of eight stepped up to this trip 13 days ago; not always shown an awful lot since winning a maiden plate at Turffontein Standside in December; unlikely to trouble the principals as tougher task in this company

Posted respectable effort when beaten 2l in a handicap and dropped down to 1m2f (Greyville) last month; a long time since his last win and yet to win over this distance; now competes off a higher mark; chance as has shown signs of promise

Verdict

This looks a tight race but GUY ALEXANDER gets the nod. The otherwise interesting Sneak Preview has a stamina query to answer at this trip, and Zoombomber could be vulnerable to a less exposed rival.
