Guerilla Warfare

J: M Yeni

T: S J Gray

Beaten a long way over 1m1f at Turffontein (handicap) 12 days ago; encouraging jockey booking; likely to go well from this advantageous starting berth and shown he can get his head in front.

Breath Of Magic

J: G Samo-Burthia ⁹

T: F Bronkhorst

Eighth of 13 beaten 11l (dropped a few pounds since) three weeks ago; has won here before; useful at this level; needs considering in this lower-class event and shown he can win fairly recently.

Captain Jim

J: S Khumalo

T: F P Habib

Scored narrowly in a maiden, breaking his duck at the seventh time of asking upped to 1m last month; competing off a higher mark; this represents a step up in class but one to be interested in.

Fast Duty

J: G Lerena

T: S T Pettigrew

Fair effort (beaten 2½l, Turffontein) two months ago; much respected if building on most recent effort and he is running off a lower mark.

Sail The Sky

J: D Schwarz

T: C I Jonker

Not been able to make much of an impact in handicaps recently; towards the rear of 13 last month upped to this trip; has a bad draw to overcome and others more likely.

Bob Lee Swagger ¹

J: T Mayhew ⁶

T: C Mayhew

Finished behind several of these rivals when 11th of 12 two months ago for which dropped a few pounds; largely disappointing since successful in a maiden plate at Fairview in November and failed to make much of an impact in handicaps recently; easy enough to take on despite this looking a little easier than last time.

Kittyboys Girl

J: C Zackey

T: M Khan

Poor strike-rate; came home fifth, beaten 6l, over 1m1f here (handicap) last month; Craig Zackey booked; she's an attractive contender as now running off a lower mark and has been on the scene in the recent past.

Green Sceptre

J: K Matsunyane

T: S G Tarry

No impression when fifth of eight here over 1m (handicap) two weeks ago; from powerful trainer and he can be competitive at this level; potential to save ground from this stall so should be thereabouts.

FAST DUTY is a firm selection, based on his most recent performance he is a strong form pick. Guerilla Warfare looks well drawn while Kittyboys Girl could be vulnerable to a less exposed rival, and Breath Of Magic might have a say.
