Genuine tempo with Nightshine leading the way. NIGHTSHINE (1) has strong overall form with two wins on the board. Built on his credentials last start when he scored by more than a length over 1100m at Turffontein Standside. Has a high cruising speed, an he will take plenty of pegging back again. ONE TIGER (3) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1160m at Turffontein Standside. Should park just off the speed. Likely to feature. SET TO MUSIC (4) has been kept fresh since he resumed last start and proved too strong, scoring by one length over 1160m at Turffontein Standside. Will be better for that latest run and he is an each-way player again. HEMISPHERE (2) last appeared seven weeks ago over 1200m at this track when he finished eighth. This is his first run for the Fabian Habib stable. Can measure up for the new barn, especially if the money comes for him.
