Hollywoodbets-sponsored Trainer Candice Dawson saddles Little Ballerina in Race 2.

It must be noted that multiple horses from that form line have come out and won since. The daughter of Vercingetorix is the class horse in this race, and she should take a power of beating.
Walled Garden from the Joe Soma stable may be the horse to close off the meeting. He showed good improvement in his last start over 1200m on the Turffontein Inside course.
The way he stayed on at the finish that day was encouraging. He takes on weaker opposition this afternoon and if confirming his recent improvement, he should be the one to beat.
