Expecting a solid tempo with several of these capable of pushing on early. WE ARE THE LOGANS (8) turned in a fine effort to score by 4 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. This tougher but nice weight drop and looks a top chance again. FUTUREWOLFF (7) is racing with great purpose and has two wins on end this course and distance, most recently getting the prize by 2 lengths over 2400m at this track. Can make it three straight. DAMOVA (5) finished third last time over 2400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. The engagement of Craig Zackey is noteworthy. Ready to go a couple better. TITANS OF WAR (2) was beaten 5.5 lengths into ninth in a 1800m contest at Turffontein Standside at his latest appearance. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
