Devil A Saint

J: J Solomons

T: D A McLachlan

Winning form over C&D; has struggled to factor since winning a Class 4 at Durbanville five months ago; did well from a poor draw at Kenilworth three weeks ago in a conditions race.

Master Of Paris

It Is My Time

J: M Winnaar

T: D A McLachlan

Narrow 100-1 Kenilworth maiden plate winner when registering his first success at the second time of asking 49 days ago; probably unlikely to trouble the principals despite the last time out success.

Das Gute

Has won at this course; failed to finish at Kenilworth over 7f (Class 4) over Christmas; a few rivals look in good form so not easy to fancy.

Kebonalesedi

J: C Zackey

T: A E Sands

Came home eighth, beaten just over 5l, in a conditions race (Kenilworth, behind a few of these rivals) last month; all his winning form has come at Kenilworth (four successes); easy to see him making an impression despite defeat last time as he was successful two runs back.

Wasn't disgraced when third of eight (Kenilworth) three weeks ago; has won at this course; likely to be a threat as recent effort was encouraging.

Pinot Grigio

Respectable fourth (Kenilworth) in December upped to 1m2f in a stakes race; has winning form at this track; knows how to win so has prospects.

Baton Rouge

J: K Steyn

T: P Botha

A few throw outs since his success in a Class 4 at Kenilworth last May; finished tenth of 12 at Kenilworth in November; probably unlikely to trouble the principals with a number of his rivals in good nick.

Okavango

J: R Fourie

T: J S Snaith

Ozark

J: M Mjoka

T: P D Reeves

Respectable effort in defeat (beaten just under 2l) when separating a number of reopposing rivals three weeks ago at Kenilworth in a conditions race; winning form over C&D; hasn't really fired since his success in a stakes race at Kenilworth four months ago; facing a testing assignment and there are better alternatives here.

Touchdown has some good efforts on the ledger, and Touchdown, Okavango and Pinot Grigio are C&D winners. However, HOODIA is hard to look beyond. He appeals based on the strength of his latest effort and can reverse last time's placings with Kebonalesedi.
