---|---|---|---|---|
Strong early tempo with Blame It On Me, Naushon and Simply Beautiful leading the way. NAUSHON (2) ran on well when winning his last start over 1800m on this course. He has won once, finished second four times and third once from as many starts over this course and distance. Oswald Noach retains the ride and the combination can follow up. OZARK (6) has fair recent form lines to his name. He has won once, finished second once and third once from six starts over this distance. Rachel Venniker is booked to ride and she may be able to coax that little bit extra out of him when it matters most. UNSOLVED RIDDLE (9) was running on when third over 1400m last time. He does have an awkward draw of nine to contend with but gets the services of Richard Fourie who will give him all the necessary assistance needed from the saddle. FLIGHT DISPLAY (8) finished out of the money two starts back then finished ninth over 2000m contest at this last start. Will enjoy a drop in class and has place prospects.
