Chief Of Staff

J: C Habib

T: J A Visser

Been largely out of form in recent starts; finished seventh, beaten 8l, at Turffontein over 1m (maiden plate) dropped back in distance with blinkers added two months ago; encouraging jockey booking.

Gold De Grace

Hat Furious

Santiago's Pride

J: K A Brewer

T: W H Marwing

Ran well from an unfavourable draw over 1m½f here (maiden plate) when he had a couple of these behind 21 days ago; possibilities with the possibility of a ground-saving trip from his draw.

Snow Moon

J: P Strydom

Proving a little expensive to follow and form has an uneven look to it; no impression when fifth of seven at Turffontein over 1m1f (maiden plate) behind Mo Ment, 14 days ago.

Pyro Edition

J: K Matsunyane

Beaten 9l in fourth over 7f here (maiden plate) in September; difficult to oppose.

20 Jul 24	Tur Turffontein	8f	Md	9-6	5/10	Diwali Rocket (5L)	25/1	-	20

This trip could be a bit far for Future Knight but PYRO EDITION is a firm choice. The Merciful lines up on the back of some good efforts, and Santiago's Pride has a useful draw.
