Komati River is the probable leader in the small field. RACHEL WALL (2) is a genuine three-year-old filly who resumed with a solid third last time out at Group 3 level at Turffontein Standside over 1160m. A win will not surprise. CALANTHA (3) is a talented mare who was a winner in similar grade two back then tackled stakes class latest and was well held. This easier and worth another chance. BLIZZARD SNOW (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5.5 lengths when sixth over 1200m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Finds the right race this time and can take this out. ROAMING SPIRIT (6) was beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth in a 1200m contest at Turffontein Inside at her latest appearance. Has her share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
