Madra Rua to take up the running at a moderate tempo. MADRA RUA (1) was in the money two starts back at Kenilworth then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1500m at Durbanville. Settles on the speed. Capable of sharp improvement and can get off the mark. TWICE A QUEEN (2) is on debut for the Alan Greeff stable. Three-year-old filly by Twice Over from Impressive Queen. Serious contender, particularly if solid in the market. INDESTRUCTABLE (3) finished fourth over 1200m at this track at his most recent appearance on July 3. Looks a strong top-three prospect. GOOD SHINE (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can secure another top-three finish.
