Tricky one to map with a large contingent of first starters but expect good early pressure. TURN IT UP (8) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in second over 800m at this track. Can get off the mark this time. BUFFALO KING CODY (1) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 800m at this track. Improver who looks a major player. THEODORE ROOSEVELD (7) is a ZAR R 400,000 (Bloodstock South Africa 2025 National Yearling Sale) purchase by What A Winter out of Dame Eleanor stepping out on debut for the Alec Laird stable. Worth watching for any market push. CATFISH (2) is a two-year-old colt who lines up for the first time. From a strong family that has produced at black type level, being by Danon Platina from the stakes winner Sea Cat.
