Bally Magic

Forest Jump

J: M Mbuto ⁹

T: D W Moore

Comfortably beaten finishing ninth in a Class 5 when behind Future Saint, Run To Rio, and Bally Magic last month; a prolific winner over this C&D; if excused most recent runs he would be interesting based on success three runs ago; should be thereabouts.

Pongola

J: R A Venniker ³

T: M L Roberts

Doesn't win often; far from disgraced (beaten just over 2l) at Scottsville three weeks ago; latest effort was encouraging so should make a bold bid.

Sacred Lily

J: S Hlengwa

Not disgraced when sixth two weeks ago in a Class 5; generally modest form since maiden success at Greyville six months ago; meeting some horses in good form and may be vulnerable.

Elusive Belle

J: S Moodley

T: L W Goosen

A respectable third of 13 in a Class 5 two weeks ago upped to 1m1f; managed just one success in her career to date; recent effort was creditable so has to be high on list.

PONGOLA looks a solid choice. He makes plenty of appeal on the strength of a good latest effort. Bally Magic is well drawn and warrants respect while Elusive Belle is a contender but must overcome the draw, and Run To Rio and Elusive Belle are perhaps not open to as much improvement as some of these.
