Small field but plenty of pace engaged, including Who Blinked, Grand Appeal and Sky Rocket. BANGKOK MAGIC (3) was doing his best work late last start to get up for second over 1200m at this track. That was first try here and came from last but found one better. Will be hard to hold out again. SHE'S A MACHINE (2) turned in a nice run last time to finish third over 1400m at this track. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. OMKHULU BOSS (4) recorded a strong maiden win over 1100m at Scottsville last time, getting there by 1.3 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Winning rider Chad Little sticks and he is worth including. GRAND APPEAL (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on May 30, finishing tenth and beaten 7 lengths over 1200m at Greyville. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
