City Lights

J: C Maujean

T: F Bronkhorst

Produced an encouraging effort (second of nine, beaten 3l) three weeks ago in a maiden plate; producing consistent form; she should go close as recent display was promising and the draw has been kind.

Villa Semaya

J: D Schwarz

T: C I Jonker

Shown only moderate recent form and yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at 29; failed to finish 12 days ago in a maiden plate; she can be taken on as this could be a hot race.

Spirit In The Wind

J: N Klink

T: C I Jonker

Recent form nothing to write home about and yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at ten; missed the frame (beaten 18l into eighth) back down to 7½f in August in a maiden plate; layoff to overcome; this line-up contains some strong opposition so others more likely.

Todoque

J: C Zackey

T: P F Matchett

Finished fifth, beaten 7l, at Turffontein two months ago in a maiden plate; Craig Zackey a notable jockey booking; by no means ruled out as she finished third at Turffontein in July.

Great Notion

J: P Strydom

T: M F De Kock

Career moving upwards; beaten into second when 9-10 on first run for this trainer two weeks ago in a maiden plate; a major contender from a beneficial draw.

Instant Attraction ¹

J: T Mayhew ³

T: C Mayhew

Seems to be going the right way and stepped up on her last two starts; beaten into runner-up when 4-5 in a maiden plate finished just ahead of City Lights last month upped to 1m2f; assuming she steps up from most recent effort then hard to ignore.

Q For Love

J: Wes Marwing

T: P F Matchett

Could not manage better than eighth over 7f here (maiden plate) splitting Hearts On Fire and Villa Semaya 19 days ago; yet to finish better than seventh in her four races; steps into the unknown over new trip and has some questions to answer.

Hearts On Fire

J: K A Brewer

T: M N Houdalakis

Beaten on her debut (here, 7f) when having two of these behind at 12-1 three weeks ago; should be better for that run.

Todoque isn't out of it while Instant Attraction has been knocking on the door of late. But firm preference is for GREAT NOTION. She appeals most from an attractive draw.
