Good tempo with several going forward, primarily Brody, Seventh Fleet and World Order. REDLIGHTGREENLIGHT (5) has produced three good efforts to date. He stayed on well when third over this distance on the Classic course last time. The son of Gimmethegreenlight should strip much fitter and in this field, he can shed his maiden tag. WORLD ORDER (6) was outrun late over this distance on the Turffontein Inside course last time when finishing third of seven. Has each-way claims. SEVENTH FLEET (2) has shown signs of needing his last two starts. He steps up to the mile and should be cherry-ripe. The booking of S'manga Khumalo is a big plus. Well worth considering. FORCE PUBLIQUE (7) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1160m at Turffontein Standside, when finishing sixth of 11. Has place claims.
