Missed the frame (beaten 6l into sixth) here over 1m2f (handicap) two weeks ago; potentially on a good mark; is a player with him operating off a reduced mark and he is certainly not devoid of ability.

Split a number of these rivals over 1m4f at Vaal (handicap) when beaten 8l 28 days ago; can be a player at this level and potentially well treated on his best form; is a player as the handicapper has given him a chance and he finished second two runs ago.

T: P P Labuschagne
Has won at this track; subpar since successful in a handicap at Vaal last August; behind three of these rivals over 1m2f here (handicap) when finishing last of 12 two weeks ago; stepping up in trip and hard enough to fancy.

Stop The Traffic
J: P Mxoli
T: C J Lensley
Can be a player at this level; didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Vaal (beaten 4½l) in an apprentice handicap dropped down to 1m2f last month; has struck up a good partnership with this rider, who is back on board; should not be ruled out as might be able to capitalise on his reduced mark and has shown some ability on occasion.

J: J Gates

Potentially well treated on his best form but quite a while since he tasted success; finished sixth, beaten a fair way over 1m2f here (handicap) with three of these rivals behind him two weeks ago; stepping up in trip and only limited appeal.

Verdict

NUCLEAR FORCE is a firm selection. DJ Junior and Stop The Traffic may have their stamina stretched over this distance, and Chabal is capable of running well.
