|---|---|---|---|---|

Strong tempo with Arumugam, Itsnowornever and Blood Of Eden leading the way. MOUNT DARWIN (2) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1700m at this track when beaten a neck. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Among the leading chances. ROSY LEMON (5) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 2000m at Turffontein Inside, finishing second and beaten 2 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. EIGER SANCTION (1) is mixing form but goes well course and distance. Can atone for a modest effort last time. ITSNOWORNEVER (8) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1700m at this track, clocking in 6 lengths from the winner. Has solid credentials.
