It's Her Way ¹

J: P Strydom

T: R Klaasen

Has won here before; turned in a solid effort in defeat last month, when third at Vaal (split Sneak Preview and Pretty Analia) in a handicap; strong claims as recent performance was encouraging and she is running off a lower mark.

Juniper Green ¹

J: G Lerena

T: F P Habib

Was on the premises (finished second of eight) in a handicap last month; edging up the ratings but booking of G Lerena takes the eye; can figure as likely to benefit from return to this trip and her latest run was promising.

Princess Ilaria

J: C Zackey

T: F Bronkhorst

Could not manage better than sixth last month in a handicap; useful at this level and on a good mark based on best form; deserves respect as has been given a chance by the handicapper and finished third two runs ago.

Sneak Preview

J: K A Brewer

T: M N Houdalakis

Produced an encouraging effort (second of 12, beaten just over 1l) back down to this distance when ahead of It's Her Way and Pretty Analia at Vaal last month in a handicap; has won here before; normally pretty consistent; deserves respect if backing up last run and post position could be a help.

Shes Everything

Seems to be improving based on last two runs; won by 2l in a maiden plate last month at Vaal, getting off the mark at the seventh attempt; certainly not out of it.

Kalikaa

J: C Maujean

T: A G Laird

Beaten 10l into seventh over 7f at Vaal (handicap, behind Pretty Analia) last month; has displayed improved form on last two starts; just second start in this company; this is competitive and not one to rely on.

Red Knot

J: J Gates

T: A Ndzilana

Not beaten too far when sixth of nine in December at Vaal in a handicap; generally modest form since maiden plate success at Vaal last April and failed to make much of an impact in handicaps recently; facing a testing assignment and passed over.

Pretty Analia

J: L Nhlapo

T: B D Botes

Respectable effort (beaten just over 2l) at Vaal last month in a handicap; should not be ruled out with her operating off a reduced mark and there was plenty to like about her latest performance.

Cartagena

J: J R Syster

Generally modest form since maiden success at Vaal in August; held in seventh 21 days ago (Vaal) in a handicap; probably unlikely to trouble the principals with several rivals in good nick.

Firm preference is for IT'S HER WAY, based on her most recent performance she is a strong form pick and can turn around placings with Sneak Preview from last time they met. Pretty Analia has seen her limitations exposed while Sneak Preview has a cracking draw, and Shes Everything isn't out of it.
