Track: STANDARD   Clouds (Max: 30)    

Solid tempo expected primarily from Joshua Hotsnake and L'ultimo. TRIPPI'S SILK (5) finished 6 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1200m at Scottsville a week-and-a-half ago. Steps up in distance today. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Sure to be in the finish. QUINN'S TIME (11) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time when beaten 0.8 lengths into third over 1400m at Greyville. Can run well again and take this out. INDECENT PROPOSAL (1) finished fourth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 0.6 lengths as public elect over 1200m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish again. EIGHT HATS (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1450m at Vaal, beaten 3.5 lengths into fourth. Nicely placed to find some form.
