Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 18)    

They should roll along at a decent clip. MISS HANNIGAN (2) showed a good turn of foot when winning her last start over 1400m on the Standside course. She has won once and finished third twice from seven starts over this distance. She is in a good space and with a bit of luck from the widest draw, she can follow up with another victory. QUEEN OF LOVE (3) showed good signs of a form return last time. She is having her peak run today and should be cherry-ripe. She runs well for Piere Strydom and can't be ignored. IT'S HER WAY (6) was impressive last time out when winning over 1800m at Turffontein Standside. Should be poised just off the lead. Will give a great sight. KISSHOTEN (7) is a handy four-year-old filly who returned from a spell last start and finished a long neck away in third over 1450m at this track. Has each-way claims.
