Expecting a slick tempo with Parker Getrix, Putins Promise and Super Agra leading the way. PUTINS PROMISE (2) ran a fair race in his last start over 1600m on this course. He stayed on well at the finish to run sixth of 10. He jumps from pole position and with S'manga Khumalo retaining the ride rates well as a main danger. GIMME THE FLAME (6) resumes from a spell which may have done her the world of good. She has won twice and finished second once from seven starts over this distance. If not in need of this run she should find a form return. WRITTEN IN STONE (13) improved last start to finish third of 11 over 1450m at Turffontein Inside. Suitably placed in this line-up so anticipating another big run. SOUTHERN STYLE (8) finished eighth of 13 last time out over 1000m at this track last start. Tackles a longer trip and has place claims.
