Anticipating good pressure with many of these facing the starter for the first time. SCORPIO (3) ran a fair race on debut over 800m on this course. He should have finished closer as he hung inwards throughout. He returns from a 20-week break, during which time he was gelded. He should make the natural improvement and rates well as a leading chance. OPERA FAN (7) has shown improvement in each of her outings to date. She was running on over 1100m on this course last time. She is a progressive type and is one of the leading contenders. SUNSET WARRIOR (6) finished fourth on debut last start at Turffontein Inside. With racing experience now behind him can finish in the top-three. SPIRITRIX (9) is on debut and should be well supported. Well worth a second look.
