Seventh Fleet

J: M Yeni

Beaten sixth of eight (Vaal) upped to this trip in January; should not be far away with so many of these having something to prove and he ran well three runs back.

Blurred Vision

Winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at ten; held in fourth just ahead of Jabberwocky six weeks ago; others appeal more.

Jabberwocky

J: C Habib

T: D Nieuwenhuizen

Comfortably beaten into fifth when close behind Blurred Vision 41 days ago; jockey booking is a positive; prospects despite defeat last time as ran well at Turffontein three runs back and his nice draw is a bonus.

Afterburn

J: N Klink

Beaten a long way at Vaal in December; headgear will need to have dramatic effect so hard enough to fancy.

Arctic Owl

Pumpkin Pie

J: G Lerena

T: C Dawson

Minor honours in maiden plate last month (6-4), running for the first time over 6f here; strong claims as seemingly there is more to come from this nicely bred son of Buffalo Bill Cody.

War Reporter

J: R Munger

T: S G Tarry

Tailed off over 6f at Kenilworth (maiden plate) last month; from respected stable; some appeal on breeding and he should go close.

Cape Saffron

J: J R Syster

T: S T Pettigrew

Not disgraced when fourth of eight 41 days ago; possibilities from a draw which could make things easier and has shown some ability on occasion.

Wearingofthegreen

J: K Matsunyane

T: M/M De Kock

Unable to land a blow when fourth of eight five months ago upped to this trip; returning from a layoff here; she should go close as seemingly there is more to come from this nicely bred daughter of Kingman.

28 Sep 24	Tur Turffontein	6f	Md	9-6	3/7	Blizzard Snow (7½L)	5/1	-	18

PUMPKIN PIE is a confident pick. He shaped nicely when runner-up on his first outing. Seventh Fleet should put up plenty of resistance while War Reporter is respected, and Cape Saffron has a cracking draw.
