Went down by half a length (dropped back to this distance) at Durbanville when finishing ahead of a number of runners he faces two weeks ago; knocking at the door recently; one to take seriously from a good draw and his latest effort was promising.

Admirably consistent; respectable effort when fifth over 7f at Durbanville (Class 4, split Clark Griswold and Diamond Rock) last month; more than capable if on song so should go well.

Verdict

Ignite The Fire should be in the mix from a decent draw, and Captains Alliance has been running well in defeat of late. However, GROOVEJET is hard to look beyond. He has winning form in the book and has a healthy career strike-rate.
