Just a small field but World Attraction, Volcanic Heat and Gimme A Vodka can ensure the pace is genuine. Some promising types. WORLD ATTRACTION (3) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1000m at this track four weeks ago. Absolutely trounced his rivals and with plenty of upside can make it back to back wins. GIMME A VODKA (1) was less than a length from the winner in second at this track on debut before breaking through for a strong win over 1200m at Vaal last start. Capable of further improvement and can go on with the job. VOLCANIC HEAT (4) scored last start at this track to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Has a high cruising speed. Take catching again. SPIRIT OF GABZ (2) was safely held when third last time out over 1000m at Scottsville, beaten 4.5 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Best figures measure up so deserves another chance.
