Cosmic Speed

J: C Zackey

T: S G Tarry

Yet to taste defeat at this track, winning on all two visits; three from six in his career so far; narrow success in a graduation plate when dropped in distance last month; jockey booking is a positive; chance.

Fire Attack

J: C Habib

T: A G Laird

Ran well to finish second (beaten 2½l) 36 days ago when ahead of a couple of these in a Grade 2; this represents an easier task than his previous race; easy to see him making an impression.

Potberrie

J: R Danielson

T: S J Gray

Creditable effort in fourth (beaten 2½l) at Vaal four weeks ago in a handicap; looking for the third success of his career; this represents a step up in class so others have more pressing claims.

Dance King

J: Wes Marwing

T: W C Marwing

Held when eighth beaten 16l here over 1m (Grade 2) 36 days ago; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; hard enough to fancy despite this looking a little easier than last time.
