Was $41.00 and underperformed when 11th last start at the track but fitter for debut run. Might have to make up considerable ground. May find these too slick.

Started at $101.00 and unsatisfactory performance when 6th last start at Turffontein but was on debut last time. Expecting to settle positively. Has a positive draw. Considering others.

Jumped at $13.00 and subpar when 10th last time at this track but was on debut last time. Gets back and needs luck. Drawn the rails. Will need a big effort to win this.

Jumped at $101.00 and finished 5th last start here. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. Hard to have.
