On a short back up. Odds of $81.00 and was nothing special when 9th last run at the track. Likely to get back in the run. Significant improvement required.

Was $15.00 and finished 4th last start at Turffontein. Likely to get back. One for the exotics.

Competitive effort when 3rd last run at Turffontein and gets some weight relief. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Would not recommend.

Ran well when 3rd last start at Turffontein and drawn beautifully. K De Melo is a pivotal booking. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.

On a short turnaround. Placed 3rd last start at this track. Will need to find a few more lengths.

Was $26.00 and below standard effort when 7th last time at Turffontein but suited by the weight drop. Yet to fire this preparation with no placings from 8 runs. Hard to see it being competitive today.
