Better Man silk
Better Man
J: K De Melo
T: V H Marshall
Has won at this course; admirably consistent; out of the money, beaten 1½l, when seventh at Greyville in July in a Listed race; should get involved; absence is no concern as has previously gone well off a break and dropping in class.

Verdict

Better Man is a major threat to the tip, and Voorloopertjie certainly isn't out of it. However, BLIND DATE is a firm selection. He is going for another win and has a healthy career record.
