Behind Way To Burn at Turffontein when beaten 9l on New Year's Day in a handicap; has won over C&D; runs for only the second time in a handicap; definitely of interest if replicating the best of her form and was successful two starts back.

Registered first success at the third time of asking when winning by just over 2l at Turffontein last month in a maiden plate; warrants respect with a good draw to help.

Off the mark at the fifth time of asking in a maiden plate last month; appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; likely to be thereabouts.

Held in sixth five weeks ago in a handicap; been generally quiet since successful in a handicap at Vaal four months ago but useful in this grade.

Posted respectable effort when beaten less than a length in an apprentice handicap, bouncing back from some moderate efforts last month; a previous winner here; largely disappointing since successful in a handicap at Vaal in July; now competes off a higher mark.

Verdict
It's a tricky race to be too confident about but it can pay to side with AQUARIUS. She has landed a plum draw. C&D winner Nkwenkwezi is respected.
