Blue Crystal

J: J Gates

T: P P Labuschagne

Behind Spirito Selvaggio over 7f at Vaal (maiden plate) when beaten 16l 17 days ago; without a win in three attempts although has finished third; done no favours with the draw and unlikely to do better than a supporting role.

The Ultimate King

J: G Lerena

T: A P Peter

Held when seventh (beaten 13l) on his debut two months ago over C&D; has a reasonable shout from a draw which should help and his breeding catches the eye.

The Ultimate King has potential to improve but firm preference is for MOUNTAIN HIGH. Spirito Selvaggio certainly isn't out of it, and Chieftain's Shield is on the shortlist.
