Common Grounds, Yannakis and Voldemort to battle for the early lead at a slick tempo. VOLDEMORT (4) dead heated when winning his last start over this distance at Scottsville. He is in a good space and jumping from a handy gate follow up. TIME TOGETHER (6) closed last prep with back-to-back placings, the last of which was at Greyville All Weather 1400m when well supported. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position and fresh-up should be finishing in the money. TURBO POWER (8) hails from the visiting Sean Tarry stable. He was sent out as the favourite last start and should have finished closer than sixth of 12 as he received a check at the 200m mark. He won his only attempt on this course and looks hard to beat. ROSH KEDESH (9) resumes from a spell. Wasn't that far away last start when finishing sixth of 11 over 1600m at Kenilworth. Has ability and should be figuring in the finish.
