Quite a while since he tasted success; missed the frame (beaten 7l into seventh) a week ago in a stakes race; easy enough to take on in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Lightly raced (this just his fourth race); finished tailed off (Vaal) four months ago; Craig Zackey a notable booking and this only his second handicap outing; could be in the mix as shown he can get his head in front.

T: F P Habib
Hasn't really fired since his success in a handicap at Vaal in September; fair effort when beaten 3l where just ahead of Espinoza two weeks ago in a stakes race; this looks a fair heat so may have to settle for supporting role at best.

Verdict

DANTE's BOND looks set for a big run, DANTE's BOND was behind Vibe Sa last time but can now reverse placings and has won over this C&D. Espinoza has won over C&D.
