Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Vaal (beaten just under 4l) last month; a winner over this C&D; should be thereabouts.

Last of eight in a stakes race (Vaal) in October; on a good mark based on best form; has won here before; this looks a fair heat so not one to rely on.

Ran well to finish third (beaten 1½l) at Vaal over 6f (handicap) last month; likes this combination of C&D; potentially well treated; recent effort was creditable so in the mix.

Managed three wins in his last seven outings; hails from a good stable; fair third of nine over 5½f at Vaal (stakes race) where just ahead of Nkandla Gold 21 days ago; can be in the mix.

Successful twice in his last four starts; scored impressively at Vaal 37 days ago; likely to be thereabouts as may well be able to cope with hefty hike in the weights and he can cope with this step up in class.

Not beaten that far in sixth (just under 5l) at Vaal over Christmas; all her winning form has come at Vaal (two successes); jockey booking is a positive; this looks a fair heat so hard enough to fancy.

Not far behind King Of Venus when sixth in a stakes race at Vaal three weeks ago; all his winning form has come at or around this trip; hard enough to fancy given this looks a decent race.

Verdict

Preference is for KING OF VENUS. He is chasing a second win over this C&D and is taken to confirm the placings after finishing ahead of Nkandla Gold latest. Rollwiththepunches lines up on the back of some good efforts while Karangetang might have a say, and Yamadori poses a threat.
