---|---|---|---|---|
Strong early tempo assured with Ndaka, Masterbling and Lightning Jimmy locking horns. MASTERBLING (2) continues to race well with a win two back at this track before finishing 1.4 lengths away in second last time over 1000m at Scottsville. S Hlengwa who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Should be in the finish. NDAKA (1) last appeared when he finished eighth over 1000m at this track on July 14. Expect him to play a major role. LOVE IN WINTER (4) was far from disgraced when fifth last start over 1100m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. That followed a win at Greyville the start prior. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. RHYTHM (5) was beaten 3 lengths into fourth over 1000m at Greyville seven weeks ago. Well placed to turn things around.
