Poorlittlerichgirl, Off Limits and Sea Goddess to vie for early honours at a solid tempo. HOLD MY HAND (6) resumes from a spell and having placed third last prep when produced fresh-up should be fighting out the finish here.
SAARTJIE (12) resumes from a spell and having placed in all of her four fresh-up runs is a must include in exotic bets. IVY LEAGUE (14) looks close to a winning run having finished a close-up third of 11 over 1750m last start in what was her second run this prep. She has won third-up previously and over a longer trip today can add to that record. DONNA MO (15) finished second two runs back at Turffontein Standside, then went one place better last time out when scoring by a head over 2000m at Vaal. She is racing in top form this prep and can go back-to-back.
