J: R Fourie

Finished third beaten 1½l five weeks ago in a Listed race; normally pretty consistent; Richard Fourie booked; leading contender if duplicating the form of his most recent win and dropping in class.

Brings plenty of winning course form to the table but form has an uneven look to it; beaten eighth of ten in a handicap on Friday; this looks a fair heat so may be vulnerable.

Hasn't won for a while and has usually offered little in recent outings; beaten 17l in ninth in a handicap 16 days ago behind El Romiachi, upped to 1m; others more persuasive in what appears to be a competitive contest.

Verdict

C&D winner Susurrando is respected, and Wild Star looks well drawn. However, FIRST OFFICER is strongly fancied to come out on top. He can't be faulted for consistency and is bidding for his second course success.
