Has winning form at this track; has maintained his consistent level of form; came up a bit short, beaten just over 2l when favourite, over 6f here () last month; one to take seriously.

Generally modest form since handicap success at Turffontein in December; finished last of eight here over 1m2f (Listed race) dropped back in distance last month; not hard to turn elsewhere despite this looking a little easier than last time.

Verdict
This trip could be a bit far for Witch Hazel, and It Is My Time certainly isn't out of it. However, SOHO HEARTTHROB is fancied for this. He is bidding to land a third win over this C&D and is the one to beat based on his most recent effort.
