LADY FALLON looks the obvious one to beat in the Work Riders opener over 1400m. She was well supported when close up on debut, should handle the extra and has top rider Sam Mosia aboard. PLAY WITH FIRE did not get into it in her last two but could place. IDEAL HEART and LORNA LILY are not going places but could get into the Quartet.

TYRCONNELL found no support on debut but put up a good showing. He was out of action for a long time and if ready should make a bold bid for his new yard. COMMAND PILOT (wide draw) drifted in the betting on debut but showed up nicely - he can only improve. SCARLETT PIMPERNEL is improving all the while and could be ready to strike. LORD DANON PLATINA wasn't disgraced on debut and could improve. He finished just ahead of KING OF THE SEAS who, with COPPER MIST and TOUCHED BY STARS, are looking to improve. Watch the newcomers.

OUTER DIMENSION was quietly fancied on debut but needed the outing and will relish the longer distance. QUEEN BRITANNA has had enough chances but could feature. SOLO DIVA hasn't been far back to date and could get into the reckoning. PERFORM is maturing and cannot be ignored for honours. EXPLOSIVE BOND is looking for Quartet money.

Very competitive. BREEZE OVER and OVER TWO YOU are bang in form and should be involved in the finish. However, GREENLIGHT MAGIC (jumps up in trip), AFRAAD (capable at best), RULE BOOK (peak run), HAZLO GRANDE (tries marathon distance), BANHA BRIDGE (honest), BATTLEGROUND (cannot ignore) and ABSOLUTE VALUE (best this track), are all capable of pulling it off.

Open. Top weight AMERICAN BISCUIT is having his 3rd run as a gelding and could come out on top. SILVER SANCTUARY won well on debut but the form has yet to be franked. NAPOLEON will have the run of the race and should be involved in the finish. MO THE MAN is better than his last run - respect. PRIMROSE PATH and GODFATHER weren't disgraced in their post-maiden runs. Others are all looking for a piece of the action.

CALLMEWHENYOUNEEDME is maturing and could go in again. SHARAPOVA has not been out the money in all 5 starts and if ready after a rest could take the honours. Stablemate SIMPLE SIMPLE finished just ahead of GOLDEN ASPEN and KAYLA'S CHAMP last time and it could get close all round. VIVACIOUS SPIRIT could enjoy being back around the turn. QUEEN OF CAMELOT needs to keep up the gallop.

TRY ME won on debut and could follow up over the longer distance. GILDA GRAY is holding form and even though this could be on the sharp side, will be catching late. BIG CITY GIRL did well on debut in her new yard and could get into the action. TSITSIKAMMA PEARL and COUNTESS DANZA are looking for Quartet money.

MABONENG is holding form and could make it two from two this course and distance. MAMAQUERA is running well and is equally comfortable over this track and trip. MEET THE CAPTAIN has yet to win over further than 1200m but it could happen. WRITTENINTHESAND is one for Quartets but needs to keep up the chase. COUNT YOUR CHANCES and GAL GADOT could take home minor money.

WINGS WITHIN ME was quietly fancied on debut and scored a gutsy victory. She could go in again. RED CARPET GIRL was coughing last time and jumped awkwardly - respect. SIMPLY MAGIC beat LAW OF SUCCESS but the latter is 1.5kg better off for a neck. It could go either way. ONE FELL SWOOP was backed and duly won in new surrounds last time and could follow up. DANCING DORA, NETTLETON, FEATHER THE NEST and WHATYOUWAITINGFOR could get into the mix.
