Kebonalesedi

J: G Van Niekerk

T: A E Sands

Creditable effort to finish fourth, beaten less than a length three weeks ago, a race won by the reopposing Rule Of Thumb; should be in the mix from a draw which could make things easier and shown he can get his head in front.

Scored by just under 3l, breaking his duck at the seventh time of asking four weeks ago in a maiden; others appeal more with new trip an unknown.

Chollima

J: C Little

He can be competitive at this level and successful three times from 33 career starts (6f-1m4f); didn't run too badly when out of the frame here (beaten 4½l) in a stakes race over Christmas.

Gnarly

J: I Taka

Fair effort when beaten just over 1l last month in a Class 5; appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; this looks a decent race so unlikely to trouble the principals.

Not far behind Rich Folks Hoax when seventh over 7f here (Class 4) 35 days ago; should not be ruled out if duplicating the form of his most recent win.

Bounceback is entitled to be in the mix, and La Pulga should be on the shortlist. However, this can go to RULE OF THUMB. He boasts a good career strike-rate and can confirm superiority with Hoodia and Kebonalesedi who were behind him when last seen.
