El Capitan, American Matador and Lord Quinn to take up the running at a decent tempo. EL CAPITAN (1) is having his first outing for the Cliffie Miller stable. He finished second in his only attempt over this distance. If settled into his new surroundings, he can shed his maiden tag. ACTION AMERICA (8) has shown good improvement in each of his efforts to date. He was running on well when second over 1600m last time. It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. The gelding may have been what he needed and the fitting of the blinkers should keep his mind on the task at hand. PIBE DE ORO (3) tried hard when touched off in his last start over this distance on the polytrack. He should enjoy racing on this track and Richard Fourie may be able to coax that little bit extra out of him where it matters most. AMERICAN MATADOR (2) has fair recent form lines to his name. It must be noted that the horse that finished second in his last outing has come out and won since. Has each-way claims.
