Out of the frame (beaten 5l in sixth) when close behind Silver Comet at Turffontein over 7f (maiden plate) 11 days ago; still searching for first win after three tries; others appeal more.

Mission To Mars silk
Mission To Mars
J: P Mxoli
T: S T Pettigrew
Running for the first time; the only newcomer; Irish bred; could be dangerous as some good aspects to his profile and the current yard form is another tick.

Twelfth Of Never
J: G Lerena

Went close when second over 1m1f here (maiden plate) two months ago; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; assuming she steps up from most recent effort then warrants consideration.

Verdict

A pretty evenly matched field. Prowler could have a say while Periodic Table looks an obvious danger to the tip. However, MISSION TO MARS is at the top of the shortlist. He hails from an in-form stable.
