The announcement will end months of speculation and debate as we then look forward to the official public gallops on Thursday 16 January, and count the days down to the big raceday at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth on Saturday 25 January.
A total of 24 horses remain in contention for the 2000m contest per early Tuesday morning, with the final field restricted to 20.
Four jockeys were also declared by early Tuesday morning and include Gavin Lerena (Red Palace), Raymond Danielson (Atticus Finch), Muzi Yeni (Litigation) and Craig Zackey (Green With Envy).
The R1,5 million HKJC World Pool Gr1 Cape Flying Championship and R1 million Maine Chance Farms Gr1 Majorca Stakes head a sparkling undercard.
