Purple Pitcher

J: K Matsunyane

Solid effort when beaten just under 2l to finish second in a Grade 3 upped to this trip last month; season-ticket holder here with five wins; a major contender with drop in class a positive and there was plenty to like about his latest performance.

Royal Edition

J: N Klink

T: P P Labuschagne

Form lately has been a mixed bag and a long time since his last win; not disgraced when eighth last month in a handicap; others have more pressing claims in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Tamarisk Tree is a major threat to the tip, and Hotarubi is respected. However, PURPLE PITCHER is a strong fancy. He is bidding for his sixth course success and his last run caught the eye.
