Came out on top by 1½l last month; four-time course winner and goes for a hat-trick today; should not be far away despite this step up in class and may be capable of overcoming hike in the ratings.

Managed two wins in his last four outings; won by just over 2l five weeks ago; just second start in this company; warrants respect as may well be able to cope with hefty hike in the weights and he can handle the step up in class.

One win to his name was achieved a fair way back; not beaten too far when fifth here upped to this trip last month; probably unlikely to trouble the principals with a number of his rivals in good nick.

Multiple course winner but not really built on success in a stakes race last June at Turffontein; not beaten that far in fourth (just under 4l) 37 days ago upped to this distance; facing a testing assignment and has questions to answer.

Potentially well treated but quite a while since he tasted success; beaten 8l when fifth of ten in a stakes race at Vaal last week; easy enough to take on given the strong opposition here.

Verdict

Plus Four has won over C&D while the well drawn Theres A Light has claims. But preference is for CORRUPT. He is a one-time winner at this track and is hard to ignore if forgiven a modest most recent effort.
