Coffeeberry

Finished last of nine in a handicap at Turffontein nine days ago; has won here before; makes limited appeal as has a lot on her plate here.

A Place In The Sun

J: K Matsunyane

T: B/J Crawford

Achieved each of her four career wins at Turffontein but a proven winner with a wins-runs record of 4-18; found life tough when 6l back in fifth in a handicap last month (Turffontein) upped to this trip.

Ariel's Jet

J: M V'Rensburg

T: E Verdonese

Has won at this track; normally pretty consistent; fair effort (beaten just under 3l) in a handicap six weeks ago; can't be ruled out if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success and she has been dropped in the weights.

Just under 2l sixth to the reopposing Mount Etna when not beaten too far two weeks ago in a handicap; possesses winning form at this track; a lot on her plate here and passed over.

Fetching Flyer

J: C Zackey

T: P F Matchett

Going for a hat-trick and appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; ran well from a problematic draw when a just under 3l winner four weeks ago at Turffontein in a handicap; Craig Zackey booked and this only her second start in handicap company; capable of going well despite having more on her plate and the hike in the weights looks justified.

Split Kadizora (second) and Ariel's Jet (fifth) over 1m1f here (handicap) 42 days ago; others have more pressing claims as this is competitive.

Kadizora

J: M K Katjedi

T: M F De Kock

Has a record of 1-13 but series of good efforts to her name; favourite and only narrowly beaten when behind the reopposing Mount Etna 14 days ago in a handicap; latest effort was encouraging so looks a likely player.

Hat's Queen

J: G Lerena

Patches Of Grey ¹

J: P Mxoli

A hike in the weights makes life tougher for Kadizora, and Fetching Flyer is one to consider. However, HAT'S QUEEN is the pick of these. She has the best draw of those likely to be involved in the finish and is going for her third course success.
