FLEMINGTON lacked support on debut but finished strongly for a good second.He should be right there. DAN THE LAD and ROYAL STANDARD showed marked improvement in their first outings as geldings. They shouldn't be far off. FLYING RUSSIAN has been runner-up in his last 4 starts and could crack a deserved victory. PRINCE OF WAR, AIMEE SWEET and newcomer INTREPID SILVA can earn.

AZA ARROW is holding form but meets STARRETT CITY on 2,5kg worse terms for a 1, 25 length beating, however, the latter has an outside draw and it should get close on 'paper'. KEEP ON FLYING is running close up and could get into the fight for honours. TOGETHER FOREVER won his maiden in his first run as a gelding and could go on. CONNAUGHT HOTEL must be considered if ready.

A competitive race. MUNTAHAA ran on late when not strongly fancied on debut. He should relish the mile and warrants respect. EGO AMIGO was heavily backed to win first time in his new surroundings and could turn it around with ARTIFICIO. KAHAL'S FANCY disappointed somewhat last time but he went too early and could make amends. If HANDSOME HENRY takes his place he could feature.

PROFIT RATIO bounced back to best after a rest last time and could record back-to-back wins. QUERARI VIKING needed his last outing and could get into the action. DANZA always gives a run for the money. CASHIN is another never far back and could feature. REBUKED tries further now and could take home a cheque. UNREHEARSED has a chance if puts it in.

Their should be nothing to choose between CAPE ORCHID, FIRST DANCE and SAVE THE DAY on collateral form and any could win. HIGH SEAS BEAUTY flew up to beat a moderate bunch on debut but a fast pace will help. Another off a maiden win is KILMOKEA who looks to have scope for improvement. SUN SENTINEL, OUR MIRACLE, PAREE and MOVIE AWARD could take home money.

Competitive Tommy Hotspur Handicap. On the Rivarine form DOLLAR DAZZLER, GREASEPAINT, WRECKING BALL and QUEEN LAURIE are in with winning claims. On the Champagne Haze form AFRICAN RULER, BRITISH ROYALE and PURE BLONDE come into the picture. Add to this Cape visitor PERCIVAL and KZN raider HIGHWAY EXPLORER as well as SPLENDID GARDEN and luck in running will be the decider.

SILK TRIP looks well above average and if the journey works for her should make a bold bid. CATALUGA finished narrowly in front of CELTIC LADY last time but the latter enjoys a 'Gavin' ride and could turn it around. LADY OF THE WORLD could complete a hat-trick and improve her impressive track record. There will be a fast pace up front and SAMARRA could run them down.

Difficult to assess. In this field whoever produces on the day could win. 8 runners have previous engagements so the form must be updated before placing bets. LED ZEPPELIN could have the measure of NIGHT EDITOR and MINNESOTA on their recent meeting but needs to confirm. HEYWOT could hold KAPELLMEISTER and RAMBO on recent form. KOPI LUWAK could pop up.
