Returns from a lengthy spell after ending last campaign last of four at this track, where he was well beaten by Zalatoris after easing in an open market. His prior third at Vaal behind Chapbook was sounder, and his 1000m record is a genuine positive with two wins and three placings from six tries. He has the right distance profile, but must come back a sharper horse to trouble these.

Resumes after six months off and brings the clearest sprint credentials in the field. She ended last campaign fifth at this track in FM BM95 company, beaten just under five lengths as a heavily backed favourite, after a Vaal third when near the top of betting. A track-and-trip winner with one win and one placing from four attempts at this set-up, she also reunites with Keagan De Melo, who has placed on her three times. She has the profile to take holding out.

Resumed with a fifth over 1200m at Turffontein Inside, beaten five and a half lengths by Trip Of Faith after starting favourite despite drifting. Her run prior was much stronger, finishing second in a F Open at Greyville when beaten just under a length at big odds. She is two from two at this track, so the venue suits, but her only 1000m attempt produced no placing. That keeps her more in the each-way bracket than as a clear top pick.

Back after five weeks and has work to do after finishing seventh at Vaal in Open grade, beaten over 11 lengths by Catfish as an outside chance in betting. His previous run at this track was also below expectations, finishing 11th in a BM84 after firming into favouritism. A prior win at this venue and the winning rider returning are positives, but 1000m is new and he has to lift sharply.

Was eighth in a NOV at Vaal last start, beaten just under eight lengths by Evening Parade after again holding a place near the top of betting. His run prior was more competitive, finishing fourth at Turffontein Inside and beaten two and a half lengths in a small field. Weight relief, race fitness and the winning rider returning all help, while his one 1000m start produced a placing. He can improve into the minor money.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a fourth at Turffontein Inside, beaten just under five lengths by Winter In Auckland in FM BM80 company after drifting from opening levels. She had won a MPLTE at Greyville Aw the start before, beating Mustang Highway as an odds-on favourite. The class drop is some help, but one placing from three 1000m runs and two unplaced starts at this track leave her with more to prove.
