Plenty of pace with Mo Ment, Chief Of Staff and Gold De Grace all pushing forward from their low draws. SANTIAGO'S PRIDE (7) finished a close-up fifth of 10 last time out over 1700m at this track when sent out at long odds. Racing over a longer trip and jumping from the inside gate can figure in the finish. ANOTHER UNIVERSE (8) finished sixth of 10 last time out over 1700m at this track in what was his second run this prep. He looked well in need of his two resuming runs and in a fitter state rates well as a leading chance. PYRO EDITION (13) returns from a spell. Closed the last prep with a fourth of nine over 1400m at this track. Rates highly fresh-up and should be right in this. SPLASHLANDING (11) finished fifth of seven last start over 2600m at Turffontein Inside when well supported. Jumping from an inside gate is worth another chance.
