In the absence of noted leaders, Highwayman Harry and Jawbreaker may be the ones to set a moderate tempo. HIGHWAYMAN HARRY (1) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track over 1160m, beaten one length. Marco V'rensburg stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Well placed and should be in the finish. COOL GAMBLER (5) is a three-year-old colt who lines up for the first time. From an elite family that includes Grade 1 winner Sparkling Water, being by Hawwaam from Espumanti. A product of the strong juvenile stable of Mike Mathew De Kock. GREENANDGOLD (11) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Sean Tarry. By Gimmethegreenlight from Seattle Gold. Respect any positive move in betting. ARIZONA MAGIC (2) is a nine-start maiden who is well and truly overdue, finishing third at this track over 1160m last time out. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
