Strong tempo assured with Chericherilady, Solamente and Empress Wu rolling to the front. HOTARU (1) ran on strongly when second over this course and distance last time. She is a progressive type and Kaidan Brewer retains the ride. In this type of field, she should be the one to beat. EMPRESS WU (2) stayed on well when second over 1000m on the Classic course last time. She has finished third over this distance previously. S'manga Khumalo steps back into the saddle and she should be competitive. CHERICHERILADY (6) should have finished closer last time as the saddle was reported to have slipped in the running. She is a progressive type and Muzi Yeni may be able to get the best out of her when it matters most. SECRET WARRIOR (4) returns from an 11-week spell during which time he was gelded. His first two efforts were encouraging. Mxolisi Mbuto takes 4kgs off his back and if not in need of the run, he should give a good account of himself.
