Trainer Alan Greeff sends out Joy And Peace in Race 3. She stayed on when fourth in the Listed Betway Algoa Cup last time.
She has won three times, finished second once and third twice from seven starts on this course.
She is likely to be settled near the rear of the field and will be mowing down the frontrunners. Regular pilot Richard Fourie takes the ride.
Bretty from the Cliffie Miller stable takes her place in Race 5. She ran a good race when third over this course and distance last time.
She set the pace that day and stayed on at the finish. It must be noted that the horse that finished fourth has come out and won since.
The daughter of Horizon has dropped to a competitive rating and with Marco van Rensburg in the saddle, she can return to winning ways.
