Zatara Magic

J: C Zackey

T: G D Smith

Course specialist who has won six times here; did it nicely last month with Downing Seven (eighth) and Runaway Song (ninth) behind upped to 1m3f in a stakes race; should give it a bold bid.

East Coast

Winner of three races (7f-1m2f) but not the most consistent of horses lately; behind Firealley here over 1m1½f (conditions race) when beaten a long way over Christmas.

Han Solo

J: C Little

T: G S Kotzen

Could not manage better than tenth 27 days ago upped to 1m4½f (Kenilworth) in a Grade 3; has won five times from 7f to 1m2f; a leading player in this lower-class event and he has knocked on the door a number of times.

Runaway Song

J: S Naidoo

T: G D Smith

Came home ninth 42 days ago in race won by Zatara Magic when beaten 11l in a stakes race; wins-runs record of 6-24 but has not been firing consistently; probably unlikely to trouble the principals as no great record on second run back following a layoff.

Bournemouth

J: R Fourie

T: A C Greeff

Respectable effort in defeat (beaten 2½l) when behind the reopposing Firealley three months ago (dropped back to 1m2f) in a Listed race; running consistently and six wins from 18 here; a likely player with lower class a definite positive and his latest effort was promising.

Downing Seven

J: K Steyn

T: J V A Strydom

Beaten 10l in eighth six weeks ago upped to 1m3f in a stakes race; course specialist (five wins); others more persuasive with stamina to prove over this new distance.

Alado's Pride

J: E Webber

T: Z Oosthuizen

Multiple course winner; out of the frame (beaten just under 5l in sixth) 28 days ago in a handicap; makes limited appeal.

Harold The Duke

Harold The Duke should be on the shortlist while Bournemouth rates a serious threat. But HAN SOLO is a firm choice. He has been among the places lately.
