Only finished seventh of 13 despite odds of 5-2 at Vaal in June upped to 7f in a maiden juvenile plate; returning from a layoff here; clear chance if finding progression from his early experience and he's shown signs of promise here and there.

Sire capable of getting smart offspring; good pedigree; related to Grade 3 winner Greeting My Master; already gelded; should go close with signs of encouragement in profile and his sire suggests the distance might suit.

Seemed to find life tough on his debut in June (at Turffontein over this distance); returns from an absence here; might be better for the experience although not hard to turn elsewhere.

Related to multiple race winner American Rebel (1m-1m2f); already gelded; sire gets fair share of winners over this distance; whether he'll be sufficiently clued up remains to be seen so this one is best watched.

Beaten 12l when ninth on his debut (20-1) last Saturday over C&D; improvement possible on this second start; entitled to be better for that run.

Not far behind Mulholland Drive last month when seventh at Vaal; from powerful trainer; entitled to have come on for that run.

Verdict
King In The East has a pedigree which appeals, and King In The East, The Headmaster and Danonomite are newcomers to keep a close eye on. However, HIGH FIDELITY is strongly fancied to prevail. He can be excused his most recent run.
