Madison Valley should be able to comfortably find the front. SEE IT AGAIN (1) finished runner-upt in the G1 Horse Chestnut Stakes at this track over 1600m Has a very good record over today's journey with three wins from six starts. Grade 1 winner this trip two back and looks hard to beat again. GRAND EMPIRE (10) built on a nice second two starts back in the G2 Gauteng Guineas at this track with a win over 1800m in the G1 SA Classic at this track four weeks ago, getting home by a nose. Promising type who can measure up again over the longer journey. FIRE ATTACK (3) lifted strongly to score by a head two runs back at Group 3 level at this track then finished fourth over 1600m in the G1 Horse Chestnut Stakes at this track last time. Has a solid record at this circuit. Can sneak into the finish. OKAVANGO (5) was an impressive winner last start and is in the mix again.
