RACE 1 (1,160M) Stablemates (7) SEVENTH FLEET and (10) FLIGHT OF A CONDOR finished close-up on debut and would have come on from that outing. The latter receives a 2.5kg sex allowance and Trent Mayhew's 2.5kg claim.
Flight Of A Condor finished behind a newcomer from Sean Tarry's stable, so he will have a good gauge regarding the chances of his fillies (11) GERBERA, (12) GREEN SAPPHIRE and (13) GREEN STREET on her reappearance.
RACE 2 (1,400M) Horse Of The Year (1) DAVE THE KING had legitimate excuses for a sub-par comeback. He would have tightened up with the benefit of that outing and is weighted to atone under these conditions.
Costly to follow in three Highveld starts, (6) THE SPECIALIST is not taken lightly with 50kg.
(2) UNZEN did not land a blow from a wide draw in a 1,450m race on the inside track but is well weighted and expected to fare better.
Beware of KZN raider (7) MEXICAN PETE.
RACE 3 (1,160M) (1) MRS BROWNING and (3) WINTER GREETING should have blown away the cobwebs with pleasing course-and-distance comebacks and they are weighted to play leading roles.
Versatile last-start winner (2) WHITE PEARL remains competitive.
(9) MIA MOO has won twice recently and should not be underestimated.
