La Chance

J: L Nhlapo

T: C Binda

Not far behind Flightlight when towards the rear over 6f at Vaal (maiden plate) last month; largely not been running well and still winless and defeats stacking up (nine on the bounce); stepping up in trip and hard to recommend.

Spirit In The Wind

Finished ahead of two of these rivals (Vaal) when beaten 8l (sixth of eight) over Christmas; shown only moderate recent form and yet to open her account after 11 starts; passed over.

Last of eight at Vaal when behind two of these over Christmas; winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 30 and failed to offer a great deal of encouragement in recent outings; is passed over.

Mattiazo

J: K Matsunyane

T: D Nieuwenhuizen

Record of the trainer offers some encouragement; the only newcomer; related to 5f winner Aniara; would need to see money for her to get involved.

Roaming Spirit

Without a win in four attempts although has finished second; came up short when second favourite and beaten just over 3l over 6f here (conditional maiden) five weeks ago; trainer is ticking along nicely; can have a big say.

The Mightiest

Seems to be going the right way; close up second in a conditional maiden (Greyville) two weeks ago upped to 1m1f; could be interesting.

Flightlight

J: C Habib

T: S G Tarry

Never landed a blow on her debut when towards the rear of 15 over 6f at Vaal at 40-1 last month; represents top trainer; improvement possible; entitled to have come on for that run.

Gerbera ¹

J: C Zackey

T: S G Tarry

From a respected stable; finished just behind Roaming Spirit when fourth over 6f here (conditional maiden) five weeks ago; should prove competitive as has a pedigree which suggests there is more to come and draw should be beneficial.

Asiah's Tiara needs to be considered, and the well drawn Gerbera is a potential player. However, ROAMING SPIRIT is expected to get the job done. She can confirm superiority with Gerbera.
