Frangipani

J: C Habib

T: R Klaasen

Has run well here recently and on a hat-trick; got the job done by 1l at Turffontein over 1m1f (handicap) accounting for three of these rivals three weeks ago; now off a higher mark but productive partnership with Calvin Habib, who retakes the mount; a likely player despite having more on her plate.

Juliet Tango

Track has proven suitable before; close up behind Lady Sabrina when fourth at Turffontein over 1m (handicap) 14 days ago; this is competitive and hard to recommend.

Surprise Party

J: P Mxoli

Last of seven over 1m1f at Turffontein (Grade 3) three weeks ago; shown all winning form at Turffontein (two successes); trainer has been going through a quiet spell; others have more pressing claims despite dropping in class.

Azaleas For All

J: G Lerena

T: F Bronkhorst

Has won over C&D; running consistently; was on the premises (third, beaten 1½l) when behind the reopposing Frangipani at Turffontein three weeks ago in a handicap; very interesting.

Boom Boom

J: C Zackey

T: F Bronkhorst

Could not compete with Frangipani when sixth at Turffontein three weeks ago in a handicap; has won three times here; Craig Zackey booking heightens interest; operating off a reduced mark so not without hope.

Lady Sabrina ¹

Has been consistent of late; a course winner; good effort when 3l third finished just ahead of Juliet Tango two weeks ago (Turffontein) in a handicap.

Art Nouveau

J: K Matsunyane

T: A P Peter

Finished a decent second of nine in a handicap at Turffontein last Tuesday; track has proven suitable before; a long time since her last win; not hard to turn elsewhere.

AZALEAS FOR ALL is expected to get the job done. She has won here three times before and can't be faulted for consistency. Mount Etna rates a serious threat.
