Good early pressure anticipated with a large contingent of first starters. WING WALKER (8) has shown good improvement since resuming from a spell. Despite over racing in the early stages of his last start, he finished off his race strongly. He returns to Maiden Company and he may be the one to side with. YIPPEE KIYAY (7) is an unraced son of Buffalo Bill Cody from the Mike and Mathew de Kock stable with Muzi Yeni in the saddle. If not in need of this run he should give a good account of himself. The betting market will be the best guide with regards to his chances. GRAND FORCE (2) showed pace over 1000m last time but found one too good on the day. He is having his peak run and if confirming his improvement, he should figure in the finish. GALACTIC LOVER (1) placed two runs back then last time out was fourth over 1000m at this track. Has good early pace and can place.
