A KINGS RETURN has much in his favour. He did well from a wide draw in his first try on the Polytrack and second start overall but now has the best of the draws, goes a bit further and has a more experienced jockey up. BUGSY MALONE is a lightly raced five-year-old who has shown potential and races for a stable in form. He rates the biggest danger having also drawn neatly. Watch out for GIANT'S CASTLE who has produced some powerful finishes on the turf. He will have matured and could come out firing if not needing it after a rest. OVER THE BAY and BIM BAM BUDDY have earning potential.

LILY OF ORANGE relished the poly finishing second after dull runs on the turf. If not in need of further still she could go on to score. AND WE DANCED also appears in need of more ground but is getting better with each run and needs to be taken seriously. ONE BITE AT A TIME has been a bit costly to follow but has a lot of early speed and could get away over the longer distance. NEW ORLEANS has drawn better and since she is quite speedy could give ONE BITE AT A TIME a hard time. FEARLESS KITTY is another with room for improvement. She was not disgraced in her last. More can earn.

Rested VIHAAN'S PIE lifted her game to win a feature and has not disgraced herself against the best. As a result she carries quite a bit of weight but her apprentice claim should assist. She needs to be taken seriously. Specialist RETAIL THERAPY is back on the poly and is the one to watch for big improvement. She has dropped in the ratings and jumps from the best gate. BLUSH OF DAWN, like RETAIL THERAPY, finished well ahead of NAOSHIMA and needed that last run so is expected to improve. NAOSHIMA could pop up back over the sprint trip. DIAMONDS 'N DUST may be fittest - trip test.

LUNARCAM followed up on a fair debut on the turf with an easy win up the straight at Scottsville. He should build on that and has the best of the draws, but it won't be easy just out of the maidens. GALLIC CHIEF, while a tough ride, has shown plenty of class and needed his last race after a rest. This is also a better distance. ASHFORD CASTLE races best after a rest and does so again. But this is quite a test and he has had quite a break - follow the betting on him to gauge his readiness. HERECOMESTHERAIN finished ahead of IRONTAIL and GALLIC CHIEF recently and is a danger.

Open lower-division fillies-and-mares handicap. COMEDY OF MANNERS needed her local debut and should improve. She has drawn well on poly debut. NOEMI should have scored off a higher rating a while back and has dropped further. She may enjoy racing fresh after rest and could time her strong finish to perfection. VOICE NOTES was quick over further last time where she made good improvement. She may not get caught over the shorter trip. Highveld raider FLORENCE has had a few chances on the poly but could enjoy this competition. PERSPICUOUS and CASA ROSADA need to be included as well.

ARUMUGAM is quickly tried again after winning two in impressive fashion. He was hampered and still won his last race in style so could be up to the task in this higher grade. DON'T TOUCH ME is also up in class and is trying the longer trip which should suit. He can't be faulted over shorter. COMMAND CONTROL could prefer more ground but loves the poly and will improve on his first run after a rest. THE BAYOU is holding form and could get the race run to suit from draw No 1. IBUTHO, MONARCHY and KAPEN PRIDE are capable of putting in bold bids as well.

Competitive. Most of the form runners have drawn wide. LORD OF THE MANOR has done well on the poly so his last run on the turf is best ignored. He should be in the firing line. FISTS OF FIRE has run well in recent starts even though having drawn wide in most of them. But he will also need a bit of luck in running from his gate. DA CAPO showed little on local debut but is a youngster with scope, and that distance looked very much on the short side. He has drawn fairly well so has that advantage. FAT CIGAR, ROY'S COMMAND, ROCK WITH ME and LIVING WATERS all need to be considered.

Trainer Andre Nel has been sending out winners regularly and TENACIOUS TIME could be his next successful runner. The five-year-old gelding was just touched off in a race where the winner went on to have a triumphant handicap debut with a strong performance. He has drawn well and could also frank the form. Year younger MY LORD AND MASTER has been catching the eye of late and could prove to be a big danger against this field. He has a pedigree that suggests he should relish the trip. On a line through Royal Monarch the youngster to watch is KHANYISA INDLELA who caught the eye on debut.
