Good early pressure anticipated with a large number of unraced runners. TINTIN (2) is fitter for two runs from a spell, last start finishing 2.75 lengths away in second over 1160m at Turffontein Standside. Great chance to break through. GHOST TOWN ROAD (6) is a three-year-old gelding by One World out of Red Granite set to debut for the Mike Mathew De Kock stable. Should acquit himself well. Keep an eye out for any positive market movement. QUICKFREEZE (11) is on debut. By Querari and is out of the Lucky Houdalakis stable. Watch for a betting push. HAMMER BLOW (1) finished 9 lengths away in sixth at his last appearance over 1160m at Turffontein Standside on November 9. Worth including in this suitable contest.
