ONLINE FORM GUIDE www.gallop.co.za CLASS 5 1500m

Track: SOFT   Clear (Max: 31)    

Iron Will should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. MASTER BOMBER (2) was a determined winner latest and at top now. This no harder and can make it two on the trot. MEERKAT MOON (6) improved sharply on his ninth two starts back at Greyville All Weather with success over 1400m at Greyville five weeks ago, getting home by a neck. Likely to be there at the finish again. SLYTHERIN (11) is back from a spell of four months. Scored a determined win at his only run last campaign at Greyville over 1600m. Sure to make his presence felt. RAGNAR THE KING (5) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth over 1600m at Greyville All Weather. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
