Nov II South Africa (Turffontein) preview

(8) COSMIC QUEEN attracted support on her good debut. She was in contention to win but stumbled badly. It is open to debate if she would have won if not for the stumble. Follow.

(7) PRETTY PRECIOUS did not show her best last time. Her trainer is in very good form and she should fight out the finish.

(4) ALESIAN BEAU showed pace on debut and could do better this time.

(5) FIZZLY BUBBLY and (6) GUN BARREL are making their debuts and deserve some respect.

(8) PIONEER SQUARE ran well in both his starts and should like this longer distance. Gets the nod to score.

(2) ONE MORE STAR was ahead of Pioneer Square when they first met but was behind him last time. He should be at the finish again.

(7) OBSIDIAN could be looking for this distance and is not out of it.

(9) THE ULTIMATE KING makes his debut, but his trainer Tony Peter knows how to win a race like this.

(3) GLAMOROUS LADY has been runner-up in her last three starts. She can go one better on the longer straight.

(9) TUSCAN STAR showed improvement and has winning chance.
