Buffalo Storm Cody from the Tony Peter stable takes his place in Race 5. He is lightly raced with good form lines to his credit.
He stayed on at the finish over 1100m last time, but found one too good in the form of Elegant Ice.
The son of Buffalo Bill Cody is making his Handicap debut. He should enjoy the rise to 1400m and can notch up his second-career victory.
Mike and Adam Azzie send out Just The Two Of Us in Race 7. She is better than her last start suggests.
She won a good race in her penultimate outing over this distance on the Classic course. The daughter of Oratorio is having her peak run today and she should be cherry-ripe.
Winning Form-sponsored Jockey Kabelo Matsunyane is booked to ride and she may be hard to peg back.
