BLUE VELVET has shown improvement in both starts after her debut effort. TINTAMARRE attracted money on debut but failed to kick. He can only improve. Watch first-timer PEACE TREATY - he doesn't have to be too good to win.

TYRCONNELL has the form but could need the outing. Stable companions MVELELO (rested) and first-timer FOREST GOD could be preferred - respect the money. Look for a big run from SUTHERLAND - he wasn't fancied when running on strongly to take second in his 2nd run and should relish the extra. Others looking for minor money.

FOLLOW THE SUN will relish the extra and should run a big race. EMPRESSOFNORMANDY has pole draw and will be there going for the judge. Look for improvement from DIMAKO'S JET and VOLARE E MAMBO - both could challenge. SOUND MACHINE is looking for improvement. CHICAGO LASS and GREEN BUBBLES could need it.

I AM GIANT ran below form last time but has ability and could resume winning ways. If he fluffs his lines than any runner could pull it off. CORNWALL is better than last run - respect. He holds POWER BROKER on earlier form. BACK IN BUSINESS should be ready to challenge. Others are looking for Quartet money.

Dr Richard Maponya Handicap (Listed) over 1800m is wide open and followers need to include as many runners as affordable. ELECTRIC GOLD has matured nicely and could be preferred to stablemate MERIDIUS. EMIRATE GINA was not striding out last time and could be dangerous. LADY POWER has found form and must be respected. SHOEMAKER has a chance if puts it in. CRIMSON KING, STAR COIN and JULIET TANGO are more for the shortlist.

The TAB Spook Express Stakes (Listed) over 2400m is another difficult race. RENY disappointed last time. She ran her best race in the Oaks, the only attempt over a marathon trip, and will be having her peak run. RED MAPLE and UNITED COUNCIL won their only try this course and distance and are looking to double up. Lightly raced INDIAN OCEAN should be running on late. Stable companions SPRING IN HEAVEN and BONETE will be tested over marathon trip. EXPLOSIVE BOND and MOUNT ETNA are improving all the while.

TWENTY DRACHMA'S never raised a sweat when running away with from a maiden field. He gives chunks of weight all round including to three time-winner IDEAL FUTURE who shoulders 4.5kg less. CORAPI didn't raise a gallop last time - the blinkers are off and could put it in. EIGER SANCTION, MONSIEUR CHEVELLE, INDIAN WAR DANCE as well as stablemates NUCLEAR FORCE and THE INKOSANA are capable of pulling it off.
