Plenty of pressure with A Bit Of Class, Perfect Miracle and Kia Kaha leading the charge. PRETTY PERSUASIVE (2) is a promising type who was placed on debut then has won two starts since. The latest was here and carried a big weight to score. Nice weight drop and has more to come. Looks hard to beat. PERFECT MIRACLE (4) turned in an impressive debut when a six length winner on the Standside track. Has upside and can go two from two. A BIT OF CLASS (3) was a winner two back then tested in the Grade 1 Thekwini Stakes and ran a huge race for fourth. Resuming in easier and no surprise to see a return to winning form. BACK FROM WAR (7) also raced in the Thekwini Stakes and ran fifth. Big class drop for return and among the main hopes.
