Great Notion

J: P Strydom

T: M F De Kock

Not beaten far when runner-up at Vaal over 1m (maiden plate) over Christmas; stepped up on her last two starts; stable going well a plus; recent display was promising so wouldn't rule out a big run.

Pretty Precious

J: K Matsunyane

T: B/J Crawford

String of consistent efforts of late and appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; couldn't quite get the job done when 13-8 third (Vaal) 15 days ago; wears first-time cheekpieces; latest effort was encouraging so should get involved.

Jilted

J: M K Katjedi

T: A Ndzilana

Winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 11; not beaten too far when fifth of eight 26 days ago (Greyville) upped to 7f.

Chilli Marmalade

J: M V'Rensburg

T: C I Jonker

Finished fourth but wasn't beaten too far (just over 3l) over 5f at Vaal (maiden plate) New Year's Eve; patchy form recently; hard enough to fancy as this is competitive.

Aurora Green

Bred on sire side to appreciate sprint distances; related to 6f winner Francisco; trainer can ready one.

Blazing Sky

J: P Mxoli

T: P F Matchett

Split Chilli Marmalade (third) and Jilted (last) over 5f here (maiden plate) when fourth of nine two months ago; probably unlikely to trouble the principals.

Gimme A Call

J: C Habib

Sire gets her share of decent sorts; yard's stats offers some hope; likely best watched for now given her lack of experience.

Gimme A Storm

Respectable fourth when separating a number of reopposing rivals at Vaal last month; some appeal on breeding and could figure.

Golden Alexia

J: D De Gouveia

T: S G Tarry

Finished in front of Chilli Marmalade and Sterling Silver over 5f here at 16-1 33 days ago; from a powerful stable; should not be far away if building on initial performance.

Green Street

J: R Danielson

T: S G Tarry

Towards the rear of 15 when third favourite in a conditional maiden five weeks ago; from powerful stable; has claims as market vibes last time suggest she is capable of better and has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come.

Sterling Silver

J: R Munger

Was ninth of 13 on her debut over 5f here at 50-1 last month; might be better for the experience although not hard to turn elsewhere.

Trail Runner

J: C Zackey

T: S G Tarry

Creditable debut, finishing eighth, beaten just under 5l at Vaal at 11-2 last month; represents top trainer; entitled to be a bit more streetwise this time and shouldn't be far away.

Great Notion has posted some good efforts of late, and Gimme A Storm and Green Street need to be considered. However, GOLDEN ALEXIA can land this. She made an encouraging debut and her experience should be an advantage.
