Good pace from Destiny Star, Harper's Way and Fire On Fire. ETHICAL (8) has shown good improvement in each of her outings to date and she is coming along the right way. She was slowly into stride over this distance last time but finished off her race well. Muzi Yeni retains the ride and if jumping on level terms she should be the one to beat. LAVA LAMP (6) was outrun late over 1700m at the Vaal last time. She has plenty of scope and must be included in all bets. INTRO (1) found one too good on the day last time. She finished third in her only attempt over this course and distance. Calvin Habib is booked to ride and he may be able to coax that little bit extra out of her when it matters most. BOLD ACTION (7) has fair form lines to her name. She drops back in distance and is back against her own sex. Gavin Lerena is booked to ride and she should be finishing in the money.
