Was held in fourth in a handicap at Turffontein last Tuesday (had two of these rivals behind); potentially well treated on her best form; likely to be involved if replicating best previous efforts and handicapper has cut her some slack.

Represents top stable; beaten just under 3l three weeks ago when sent off 12-1 at Turffontein in a handicap; plenty of appeal as might be able to capitalise on her reduced mark and has proved she knows how to win.

Went down by a neck last month just ahead of Be My Fate in a handicap; running consistently; competing off a higher mark; has possibilities.

Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Turffontein (beaten 3½l) in a handicap upped to 1m1f three weeks ago; needs to be respected as shown she can win fairly recently and the handicapper has given her a chance.

Finished just behind Chariklo when third last month in a handicap; has found improvement of late; this only her second handicap outing but been raised a little in the ratings.

Creditable effort to finish fifth, beaten just over 2l in a handicap at Turffontein 14 days ago; one win to her name was achieved a fair way back; been raised a little in the ratings; not hard to turn elsewhere with new trip an unknown.

Found life tough when 5½l back in fifth in a handicap (Turffontein) last week - split Play With Fire and Ariel's Jet; been a while since she achieved her only career win; others have more pressing claims.

Verdict
Play With Fire is one to consider, and Wise Counsel and Chariklo may have their stamina stretched over this distance. However, UTSAAH gets the vote. She has shown she can get her head in front.
