The first race is due off at 13h00.
S’manga Khumalo is the man to watch with a strike rate of 18%.
Jimmy The Rich writes Alec Laird sends out Imperial Duke in Race 8. He produced a promising debut effort over 1400m at the Vaal.
He was bumped at the start, but finished his race off nicely.
The son of Duke Of Marmalade would have gained from the experience and will enjoy the extra furlong on offer. With the natural progression that is expected, he should be the one to side with.
Banha Bridge is the best value on the card. He showed some signs of a form return in his last start over 1400m at the Vaal.
The manner in which he stayed on at the business end was encouraging.
The son of Flower Alley will love the step up in distance and with S’manga Khumalo in the saddle, he should go close to winning.
The false rail is at zero on the back straight and 6,5m on the bend with a 6,5m spur at the 600m mark.
Please note that the seventh race is run over a mile.
