Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 14)    

Strong tempo with Green Street, Messalina and Intro leading the way. CHERRY OH BABY (4) moved up well over this distance on the Standside course last time before getting outrun late, finishing second of eight. It must be noted that the winner of that last start run has come out and won again since. She has placed in all of her three runs this prep and deserves a winning turn. MESSALINA (2) tried hard when finishing a long neck second of eight over 1400m last time at Turffontein Standside. She has placed in all of her last three starts and rates well as a leading chance. GREEN STREET (1) set the pace over 1400m last time out when well supported but found one too good on the day. Jumping from an inside draw may be hard to peg back. GIMME A CALL (7) has run two fair races to date. She finished third of eight last start and it must be noted that the horse that finished third in that race has since come out and won. She has scope and with a bit of luck in the running can finish in the money.,
