J: P Mxoli
T: S T Pettigrew
Has won two of his three career runs and bidding for hat-trick; easy winner (3½l, Turffontein) upped to this trip 47 days ago, form boosted by Apache Son; running in a handicap for only the second time; should figure as may well be able to cope with hefty hike in the weights and he can take this step up in class in his stride.

T: M N Houdalakis
On target three times in his last five outings; track has proven suitable before; easy handicap winner at Turffontein when Robert Browning and Apache Son were behind him two months ago; a leading contender as steep rise in the weights may not be enough to stop him and he can handle the step up in class.
