Miss Scaletta

J: P Mxoli

T: P F Matchett

Good effort when close up over 1m at Turffontein (handicap) five weeks ago; shown all winning form at Turffontein (two successes); slightly higher rating to contend with; this demands more than last time so others more appealing.

Pointer

J: G Lerena

T: A G Laird

Was fifth of seven, beaten 7l, at Turffontein over 6f (handicap) two weeks ago; should go close as might be able to capitalise on her reduced mark and post position a big plus.

Oxalis Gold

J: D De Gouveia

T: M/M De Kock

Towards the rear of 15 at Turffontein over 1m (Grade 3, just behind Miss Scaletta) in November; has chalked up two wins from her last five; possibilities with lower class a definite positive.

Francilien

J: C Zackey

Has winning track form; respectable effort at Turffontein over 6f (stakes race) 24 days ago; arguably the one to beat as is no stranger to the winners' enclosure.

Sonic Jet

Finished towards the rear of 13 over 1m at Turffontein (Grade 2) three weeks ago; successful twice in her last four starts; a course winner; could have less on her plate in this.

Great Notion

J: M K Katjedi

T: M/M De Kock

Running well at present and seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; missed out by a head at Turffontein 19 days ago; just second start in this company but a rise in the ratings to contend with; climbing the ratings and others more persuasive.

Golden Moment is one to consider while the well drawn Pointer has claims. But FRANCILIEN is strongly fancied to come out on top. She knows how to win and has been successful at this track before.
