Stoneywood

J: M V'Rensburg

T: M N Houdalakis

Not beaten far when runner-up over 5f at Vaal (handicap) last week; seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; off a higher mark but running in a handicap for just the second time; one to consider.

This is not a race for maximum stakes but it looks like an opportunity for ROCKAROUNDTHECLOCK. He is fancied to reverse the placings with Ready Set Fire from their last meeting and has been a winner over this C&D. Stoneywood has winning C&D form.
