Fair effort when beaten just over 3l, finishing fourth of 14 two weeks ago in a Grade 3; a previous winner here; on target three times in his last five outings; may have to settle for supporting role as has a lot on his plate here.

Comfortably beaten finishing sixth in a stakes race (Kenilworth) two weeks ago; has done all his winning at a lower level; easy to oppose in what appears to be a competitive contest.

All his victories have been gained at a lower level; out of the frame (beaten 4l in fourth, Turffontein) two weeks ago in a stakes race; probably unlikely to trouble the principals in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Verdict

EIGHT ON EIGHTEEN has to be the first name on the shortlist. He is taken to enhance a fine record at this sort of trip. This distance may be a bit longer than Confederate wants.
