The juveniles are expected to go keenly. READ ALL ABOUT IT (5) finished third at this track over 1400m last start when well supported. Jumps from an inside draw and rates well as a leading chance. RED PENNY (6) followed up his maiden victory with a good third-place finish over 1160m on this course. He moved up well that day before getting outrun late. He is in a good space and merits healthy respect. TAKE NO PRISONERS (8) fought hard when winning on debut over this course and distance. Callan Murray retains the ride and he can remain unbeaten. MIGHTY EAGLE (4) will be rock-hard fit now following a nice effort at Vaal last start when third. Has each-way claims.
