Strong tempo from the outset as a number of them push forward, with Dimako's Jet, Free In Seattle and Lapis Lazuli leading the charge. DIMAKO'S JET (2) has won once, finished second twice and third once from six starts over this distance. She jumps from a good draw of three and may be the horse to side with. FREE IN SEATTLE (4) fought hard for her last victory over 2000m on the Vaal Classic course. She finished second in her only attempt over this course and distance. Has each-way claims. MOUNT ETNA (3) ran on strongly when third over 1600m at the Vaal last time. She is likely to be settled near the rear of the field and will be mowing down the frontrunners. IT'S HER WAY (5) fought on strongly when winning by a neck two runs back at Turffontein Inside and then last start finished a close-up fourth of 13. Has drawn well and is worth considering.
