Race 1
Tarzan ran a cracker at long odds first time out. Strydom on board now and can improve those 4 lengths beaten last time to win. Roll Of Drums is the biggest danger with Yeni jumping on him, whereas he rode the first selection last time out. Beaten under 6 lengths by what looks like a very good racehorse in Soqrat. Now And Forever has the most experience in the race but also should have the leasr improvement to make. Place chance.

Race 2
Oh Mercy Me ran behind a well backed horse first time out finishing under 5 lengths behind. Could be the right type here. Dashuri was beaten on both starts fairly well with improvement over further than today's distance. Steps back to 1450m. Place chance. Long Pond was a well beaten second last time out when favourite. But has placed twice in two starts.

Race 3
Benji was well beaten in feature company last time out but with no standouts in this field this two year old could be the right one. Finished a tired 3rd first time out and will strip much fitter now. Ragnarok has decent but exposed form. Was placed last time out but has more to find to win even though this is a weak maiden. Sharp Gitano ran second last time after two poor efforts prior. Place chance again.

Race 4
On form alone Liberado should have the beating of Shadow Man and Limestone Mass. Thats the way we see it finishing. Shadow Man was a very nice second last time with Liberado picking up two nice cheques in his last two runs. Liberado also has the most improvement to make. Limestone Mass has been disappointing overall after a nice second starts. More expected.

Race 5
Hirohito ran a nice second to what could be a useful stayer in time, Condor Gulch. That formline runs through many runners in this event. However the second Smart Deal ran to Snorting Bull could have him the second pick here. For third, Festive Linngari looks the type to place after coming from a wide draw last time.

Race 6
Scotland has a wide draw to overcome but ha she Master in the irons. The inform Peter stable to his advantage and the form in his last three starts augers well for this Strydom mount. One to beat. Fortune Fella carries top weight but has been in good form against better with a lower mass. Just A Jet stayed on well last time behind Sunshine Silk and had another good run prior. Must be considered. Don't forget Condor Gulch for a show, he looks to be improving on every start.

Race 7
Smart stayer GAMBADO is the pick here after a nice effort in the Derby last time out. He looks highly progressive. Notting Hill ran two nice races of late and comes in with a low mass. One to consider seriously here. The Rising Legend has won three of five and looks like he is going though the divisions nicely. Place chance.

Race 8
Wonderous Climber, it's fair to say, has been disappointing since arriving on the scene winning his second start. He should have won again and this developing stayer could be the type just needing time to furnish. Watch for him to get in front a D stay there with the stable jock onboard. Very decent last few runs. Evolver won his maiden well and ran a nice race on the handicaps. Should be right there again. Sergeant Pepper has been ultra consistent other than his feature race flop. One to seriously consider here.
