Shown recent signs of improvement; solid run when third at Kenilworth last month in a stakes race; certainly not out of it with draw a positive and shown he can get his head in front.

Yamazaki

J: J P v'd Merwe

Was held in seventh here over 6f (Class 4) four weeks ago; has winning track form; must be high on list from a nice draw and he has shown signs of promise in the past.

Diamond Rock

J: J Solomons

T: D A McLachlan

Not beaten too far when seventh here over 7f (Class 4) last week; hasn't won for a while and generally been out of sorts of late; this is competitive and looks risky.

Yamazaki has a cracking draw, and Captains Alliance lines up on the back of some good efforts. However, MARCUS AURELIUS is expected to get the job done. He is expected to confirm placings after he got the better of Captains Alliance, Diamond Rock and In Motion when last seen and is a one-time course winner.
