Ada Lovelace

J: J Gates

T: B Webber

Ran a good race in defeat when a close second (Vaal) 16 days ago; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; off a higher mark but runs for only the second time in a handicap; hard to dismiss.

Lady Elliot

J: M Yeni

Has won here previously; potentially on a good mark; creditable effort to finish runner-up over 7f here (handicap) 28 days ago; recent display was promising so is of interest.

Longsword ¹

J: K De Melo

Finished third five weeks ago albeit only beaten just under 2l at Greyville when dropped to this distance in a stakes race; from top stable and admirably consistent; the yard continues to be among winners recently.

Daring Act

J: C Habib

T: R Klaasen

A previous winner here; smart performer at one stage; fair effort (beaten 1½l) three days ago at Vaal in a stakes race; recent display was promising so needs considering; held an entry at Vaal Monday.

This looks a competitive affair. Daring Act is one to consider while Ada Lovelace is on the shortlist. However, HAT's MAMBO is put forward as the selection, HAT's MAMBO has a clear chance if excused an unimpressive latest run and has won over this trip before.
