Finished towards the rear of 15 with blinkers tried over 6f (conditional maiden) in November; failed to impress last time, although was second in November and likely to be involved.

Panthera Uncia ¹

J: M K Katjedi

T: B D Botes

Creditable effort to finish third last month splitting Desert Cloud and Act On Snow in a maiden plate; best form so far in last two starts; has claims as latest run was an encouraging one.

Chilli Marmalade

J: N Klink

T: C I Jonker

Finished in front of Potato Salad and Act On Snow in a maiden plate when third at 25-1 (beaten just under 5l) 21 days ago; best form so far in last two starts but yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at 19.

Chasing The Crown

J: G Dookhit ⁹

T: G J Maroun

Generally struggled of late; failed to complete at the weekend in a maiden plate; this is competitive and not hard to turn elsewhere.

Potato Salad

J: J Gates

T: S J Gray

Remains lightly raced but this now her sixth attempt to get off the mark; split Chilli Marmalade and Act On Snow when sixth last month dropped down to this distance in a maiden plate; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

Could not manage better than eighth last month in a maiden plate; others have more pressing claims.

Fully Committed

J: C Zackey

T: S G Tarry

Looks the part on breeding (by Captain Of All); yard has enjoyed debutant winners at this course; can't be ruled out with signs of encouragement in profile and her sire gets speedy types.

Panning Silver

J: D De Gouveia

T: S G Tarry

Represents a trainer with a strong record here with newcomers; looks the part on breeding (by Danon Platina); sire's progeny generally enjoy some ease in the ground; shares a dam with Leicester Square, a 1m2f winner; must be high on list as some good aspects to her profile and the draw has been kind.

16 May 24	Vaa Vaal	5f	Md	9-6	2/8	Rodeo Drive (4L)	10/1	-	52

DESERT CLOUD is a firm choice. She is taken to confirm placings with Panthera Uncia and Act On Snow. Endizayo should put up plenty of resistance while Fully Committed certainly isn't out of it, and Panthera Uncia has generally been running well.
