Grant Maroun has 3 strong contenders, SPECIAL ANNOUNCE, GOLDEN MAN and CHAMPION ALAMI. Had this race been over further GOLDEN MAN would be a strong first choice, however, he will have to give them start turning for home. SPECIAL ANNOUNCE has been close up in both starts and sports blinkers now. FIESTA DE ESPANA ran a top debut and could win. SIR CECIL is not out of it either.

SMART CALL has top class form and despite a wide draw should run a big race. BILATERAL has also drawn wide and needs to find true form after her break. Sean Tarry has 2 up and coming fillies that will be out to prove themselves EPSOM DOWNS and SEVENTH HEART - both have drawn on the inside. ROYAL TRIP, PEEP SHOW and ZRINSKI could take home a lesser cheque.

DOWN UNDER has been runner-up in his last three and comes from franked form. Despite a wide draw he should go one better. ICY AVALANCHE finished in front of REGAL FORCE recently and could confirm from a better draw. CONFABULATE refused to gallop last time and jumps from a wide draw. JAY BOY should do better but biggest danger could come from newcomer MASTER SWITCH.

WANDIE'S drifted in the betting on debut but ran on. The mile should suit her and should run well. SILVER GODDESS is capable buts gets going late. She could prefer further and a stiffer track. ROSALIE needed her last run and has pole position. EAU DE CREOLE will prefer further but cannot be ignored. TASTY, POLAR SECRET, PIED PIPERESS, PRETTY SPECIAL and UPON A DREAM can earn.

VIKING HERO finished in front of DREAM LEADER when they met in December. Both have decent draws and their positions should be confirmed. WILL PAYS races in his new surroundings. He has been heavily backed in both starts and has obvious ability. MISS DECEMBER is back over 1000m and should do better. COHIBA, KOSTYA ZU and GOLDEN GLOBE are more for the short list.

Geoff Woodruff's three, SHADOW OFHIS SMILE, SABADELL and RAKE'S CHESTNUT dominate. The former has come on heaps since coming from off the pace and is on a hat-trick. SABADELL shouldn't be far off on collateral form. RAKE'S CHESTNUT could easily win if puts it in. BOUCLETTE TOP shouldn't be far off while TIGER'S RETREAT, APPROVAL RATING and MORPHEUS could get into the picture.

LAZER STAR has won all 4 starts to date. She tries further now and goes around the bend for the first time. She should extend her sequence. SILVER CLASS was beaten 3,5 lengths by her and is 2,5kg better off. SENSIBLE LOVER only won her maiden recently but looked really special. BICHETT is no slouch and should get into the picture.

Easy Dingaans winner, UNPARALLELED has come well and the Tony Ruffel Stakes should be for the taking. MAC DE LAGO has won both starts to date and could be anything. IMPERIAL GOLD hasn't been far off in features and jumps from pole position. MUTAMAKKIN improved in blinkers and could get into the frame. PRINCE OF ORANGE, LIGHT THE WAY and BURG could take home money.

SHAYNA has a good record over this course and distance and can improve it from pole position. NTOMBE is holding form and should again be thereabouts. WILL I DO comes off a rest and could win over the shorter trip being fresh. MISSMASALA could get into the action if behaves at the start. SPRINTING QUEEN and SUEDETTE are others to consider.

GREEK LEGEND finished a length behind subsequent Cape Derby winner Ertijaal after being cut into. He could frank the form. TOM FOOL should stay the longer distance and rates a threat. THATO MAGESTIQUE is holding form and won't be far off. RAMPANT ICE has a wide draw to overcome but with ZANZIBAR MAN, MR MULLINER, GO GOLD and SONNY BILL could get into the picture.
