Augusta Blue ¹

J: G Van Niekerk

T: A N Marcus

Last of 11 in a Class 4 21 days ago when just behind Spirit's Unite; brings winning C&D form to the table; this is his grade; not ruled out if excused most recent run as achieved Class 5 success two runs back and shown he can get his head in front.

Spirit's Unite

J: A Domeyer

T: P Steyn

Normally pretty consistent; posted respectable effort when beaten just under 3l over 6f here (Class 4) seven days ago; every chance as latest run was an encouraging one.

Ignatius

J: J P v'd Merwe

T: P Steyn

Just the one victory on his CV; finished out the back last month in a stakes race; likely to be a threat as has bits and pieces of decent form - return to this trip is a plus too.

Blame It On Me

J: O Noach

T: A D Steyn

Respectable effort to finish eighth, beaten 3l here over 1m (Class 5) last month; yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at nine.

Unsolved Riddle

J: R Fourie

T: L Gila

Missed out by half a length here over 1m (Class 5) with three of these rivals behind him 35 days ago; been a while since he achieved his only career win; likely player as won't mind the drop in trip and his last run was encouraging.

Ignatius is possibly starting to look exposed, and Augusta Blue could have a say. However, SPIRIT'S UNITE is a strong pick. He looks a reliable option and ran with credit last time.
