Track: AW   Rain (Max: 23)    

Master Du Rouvray should spear straight to the front of the small field. MOHAVE PRINCE (1) finished sixth over 1600m at Listed level at this track at his most recent appearance on July 4. First try this trip but well placed this grade. Expected to go close. TUNGUSKA (2) has put together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on August 28 over 2000m when he got home by 1.3 lengths. Winning rider Serino Moodley retains the mount. Goes well fresh and likely to be in the finish again. MASTER DU ROUVRAY (5) returns today and is on a run of three straight wins, the latest over 2000m at Scottsville on July 8. Has a formidable combination with Keagan De Melo who has been aboard for his last three wins. Sure to be competitive. UZWANO (3) built on a nice second two starts back at Scottsville with a win as public elect over 1600m at Scottsville three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 0.9 lengths. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role.
