Jimmy The Rich writes Global Drummer is the best bet on the card once again.
He showed good speed in the Non-Black Type Fairview Merchants against older campaigners last time, but was outrun in the latter stages.
The son of Global View is unbeaten from two starts over this distance. He is likely to have his own way in front today and if this run has not come too soon, he may be hard to peg back in the run down to the line.
Take The World hails from the Jacques Strydom yard and is the best value on the day. He showed good improvement in his local debut on this course over the minimum trip.
The manner in which he finished off his race that day caught the eye.
The son of Pomodoro will enjoy the rise to the mile and should strip a much fitter horse. From his mid-field barrier position, he can improve to win this contest.
Global Drummer will race with both a tongue tie and compression mask on today.
Take the World has alumites on the front and is unshod behind for today’s race.
The false rail is 7m of zero to the 1200m mark, decreasing to 5m till the 800m mark with a 5m spur.
