Expect to see Slim Jannie and Luhamba Phambili prominent, along with I Am Giant prominent. CYMRIC (10) tried hard when second of seven over 1160m at Turffontein last time when well supported. He has won once, finished second three times and third once from as many starts over this distance. He is having his first run from a new stable and rates well as a main danger. I AM GIANT (12) returns from a spell and is having his first run from the Stuart Ferrie stable. Sean Veale is booked to ride and if not in need of the run, he should be finishing in the money. HITHEMHARDSUNSHINE (3) tried hard when second last time. He is having his peak run and if repeating his last effort, he should be involved at the finish. LION RAMPART (6) ran seventh of 11 last start at Kenilworth over 1200m when beaten 5 lengths. Having his third run this prep and in a fitter state can place.
