Sizzling pace from Flamboyant Flyer, Key Worker and Free In Seattle locking horns ahead of Lapis Lazuli and Patches Of Grey.
AZALEAS FOR ALL (7) will be peaking third up and has not been beaten all that far in both of her starts this prep. She slides down in class for this, and her wide draw can be negated with top hoop Gavin Lerena in the saddle. Hard to beat in an even field. ANCIENT WISDOM (1) is better than her last start in the G2 SA Oaks here 2 weeks ago. She is better placed over 1800m and in this class, she can go close to taking it out. ELEMBEE (2) ran a much better race for third last time out, albeit in a 6-horse field. She drops down in class, and a repeat effort would see her right in the finish again. Include in all combinations. KEY WORKER (4) won at The Vaal prior to finishing fourth here 5 weeks ago over 2000m. She is in a good space and has each-way claims.
