Plenty of pressure expected over the mile. WHAT A WARRIOR (5) tackled the mile for the first time last start at Turffontein Standside and after looking a winning chance halfway down the straight he found one better. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and two minor placings from four starts. Bold showing expected. SHERIFF BILL BROWN (3) broke through for his maiden win over 1400m at Turffontein Standside last time, scoring comfortably. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Great chance to go back-to-back. DOESYOURMOTHERKNOW (6) scored last time out over 1400m at Turffontein Standside. Craig Zackey stays aboard. Gets some weight relief this time. Well fancied and got the job done last time. Has upside and can measure up again. DEAR DOC (1) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1600m at Turffontein Standside, beaten 6 lengths. Looks to be in the right race so expect another big run.
