Noble Warrior

J: T Godden

T: K Naidoo

Struggled a bit since winning a maiden plate at Greyville last June; last of nine last month in a handicap; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Bob

J: C Maujean

T: G Van Zyl (jnr)

He can be competitive at this level; finished sixth last month albeit only beaten 3l (Scottsville) in a handicap; not ruled out if building on promise shown last time.

Animal Impact

J: C Habib

Out of the frame (beaten 4l in fourth) over 1m½f here (handicap) 49 days ago; not really built on success in a maiden plate last June at Greyville but this is his level.

Connoisseur

J: K Matsunyane

T: D C Howells

Produced an encouraging effort (third of eight, beaten just under 3l) when dropped back to 7½f five weeks ago at Scottsville in a handicap; one win to his name was achieved a fair way back; should go close as recent display was promising and he reverts to a trip sure to suit.

Tom's Act

Last of eight over 1m1½f here (handicap) two months ago; season-ticket holder here with five wins; he can be taken on as tends to need the run.

Galaxy Explorer

J: G Lerena

Not disgraced in fifth over Christmas in a handicap; shown he can be competitive fairly recently and likely to be a contender.

Double Olympic

J: S Moodley

Has a record of 1-13; beaten 9l at Scottsville upped to 1m4f last month in a handicap; should figure as has been on the scene in the recent past.

GALAXY EXPLORER looks a solid choice. There is a question mark over whether Bob will be effective over this trip, and Connoisseur has seen his limitations exposed.
