GOLDEN ASPEN has been knocking and should give another good showing, however, there are a few looking to challenge. STAR AGLOW started poorly after needing her last outing and will come on. BACK TO FORMENTERA did well in both her starts and will relish the longer distance. MANAAJIM was supported on debut but was not striding out - respect. She is coupled with debutante MARIA'S WORLD - watch and respect money for another newcomer SACRED VALLEY.

Good race. Both MANHATTAN and SAN QUINTIN ran on powerfully in the closing stages on their debut debut runs and both will come on lengths over the longer distance. ABAYYAAN eased in the betting on debut but wasn't disgraced and will know more about it. GLOBAL PLAYER is running close up and shouldn't be far off again. STAY THE COURSE, MY TRUE NORTH and MAGNUM P I are improving and have money claims.

EARL needed his last run and will come on heaps. Stable companion IMMEASURABLE is holding form and shouldn't be far off. GREAT WARRIOR hasn't been far back recently and must be considered. SHANGANI disappointed in his post-debut run but could enjoy the longer distance. FIFTH OF JULY and CALL ME MASTER warrant inclusion in exotic bets.

Small but competitive field with all 7 runners capable of pulling it off. THE KOP was soundly beaten by REUNION (3kg worse off) but then went on to win both subsequent runs with consummate ease. The latter has ability but is extremely moody. SOUTHERN SONG is running well and looking to double up over this trip. IMPERIAL MASTER and OUR COYS are holding form and could get into the reckoning.

Tricky where weight could be the decider. NETTA carries a hefty 62kg after a rest and gives SENTBYDESTINY 4kg while the latter gives MAGICAL FLIGHT 5.5kg. They all were behind War Of Athena and it could get close all round. BALLET SHOES and other inmate SMOKING HOT come off rests and could just need it. Eight-year-old ROUGE ALLURE as well as SHIVERS, who doesn't appear too sound, could find money.

Top filly UNDER YOUR SPELL (5 wins from 6 starts) meets up with classy filly BIG BURN (4 runs for 3 wins and a 2nd) in what should be a Joburg Spring Fillies And Mares Challenge (Grade 2) to remember. VICTORIA PAIGE, coming off a short rest, and THUMBS UP, trying a little further, could dispute minor money.

GOT THE GREENLIGHT and MK'S PRIDE renew rivalry in the Joburg Spring Challenge. In the Hawaii Stakes the latter proved 0.50 lengths better but is 3.5kg worse off. However, the inside track is easier but 50m further. Great race. BINGWA, EXPRESSFROMTHEUS and TIERRA DEL FUEGO appear held on their last run. MR FLOOD tries further now and even though bred for the extra could be found wanting. COPPER MOUNTAIN could flash up late for money, being fresh.

Competitive. SEA WAYS found problems last time after a rest but gives start and will have to get lucky. NOW YOU SEE ME is rarely far back and could use No 1 draw to her advantage. ESKIMO PIE comes off a rest but could get involved in the finish. FOREIGN FIELD is running well but stablemate WAR JEWEL should be right there on their recent meeting. CITY BY THE SEA runs well at this track. HAVE A GO JO is capable but could need it.

Filly CLAFOUTIS won at the 3rd time of asking and has plenty of scope for improvement. TIMBAVATI RIVER is another looking to improve in his post-maiden run. WAQAAS is always thereabouts and should run an honest race. TOP WESSELTON is in form and if relaxed at the start could complete a hat-trick. MY KINGDOM showed marked improvement last time and with BLACK THORN as well as THE CAMBO could make the frame.
