PURPLE DIAMOND wasn't far back in both starts in the Cape and the form has been franked. ALEX THE GREAT has been in the money in all 4 starts to date and should be there again. POLAR ICE found support on debut and will know more about it now. BENNU, MOONEY and supported newcomers (especially MUTAWAARY) could feature.

TURAATHY was carded as a reserve runner before this but if she takes her place should be in the shake-up. COUNTESS VAR was backed when close up on debut and will have gained experience. PLAYING GAMES and OMO POWER meet up before this - watch the form. ELEGANT BEAUTY could get into the picture. Watch debutante stable mates EFFORTLESS and CLUB WORLD.

IMPERIAL PAST raced as a gelding last time after a 6 months break and just needed the outing. If not affected by a breathing problem could get off the mark. Only serious danger is PRINCE OF KAHAL who found no support when third on debut and should improve heaps. TOBY COATES and CRASSUS could make the frame. Watch newcomer DELTA KNIGHT.

After running 4 consecutive seconds FLYING RUSSIAN ran below form when not acting in the soft. He should redeem himself here. SEATTLE SEAHAWK comes off a rest and could get into the action. DANCING REBEL is running close up but is struggling to crack it. CONNECT is better than his last run. SYNERGY should improve on debut.

STATE STAR was beaten by experience last time and could resume winning ways here. STREET GAZE (disappointed last run) beat Rose Of Soweto easily whereas SEATTLE TANGO (easy winner since) was well behind the same filly. Both are capable. LEBANESE TRACTOR needs to confirm her last performance. PATCHOULI QUEEN can improve more. TANDANA and CATWALK TEASE could take home money.

MATADOR MAN has ability but cannot afford to give too much start over the shorter trip. SHE'S A GIVER is a top filly and should give a good account of herself. Stable companions DOOSRA and SILVER CLASS are no slouches and could get into the money. ROMI'S BOY needed his last run and could get into the picture. DUKE NUKEM could just need it.

BARBEL RUN is bang in form and could complete a hat-trick, however, SPRING STEEL has a pull of 3,5kg for 2.25 lengths and will enjoy this turn. She could turn it around. STARCRAFT PRINCE shouldn't be far off them on collateral form. All runners are capable of pulling it off especially DREAMUPONADREAM, CEDRUS LIBANI and PENULTIMATE.

GUNS AND ROSES won on the second time of asking and looks to have plenty to come. JUBA showed unexpected improvement when close behind useful Pennington Sands last time. If reproduces that form should contest the finish. IN THE WEB found no way through last time and should get a lot closer. TANGERINE LADY, VICTOR'S CASTLE and MISS TURBO are more for the short list.
