Race 1 (1,100m)
Improving juvenile fillies to note for the future.(3) APPARITION did what was required to win on debut and looks to have more to come.(2) QUEEN LEILA is consistent and did look dangerous last time. She is dropping in trip.(1) NIGHTSHINE won easily before trying his luck in the Grade 2 Golden Horseshoe (1,400m). He is much better than that run suggests and can bounce back to best over the shorter distance.(6) PROUD MARY has not done badly. She has a light weight and could have more to come after a break.
Race 2 (1,100m)
(5) MINERVA FAE finished a promising second to Apparition. If the latter maintains his unbeaten record in Race 1, she too should be hard to beat.(2) STAGGERWING ran a creditable second in open company last time. She must have a big say again.(1) SOCIAL GRACES had some support on debut but won better than the margin suggests and should relish the ground.(4) LIFE’S TREASURES has met high-class individuals. She could get closer in her first run back from a rest.
Race 3 (1,600m)
Irish-bred (4) MISSION TO MARS produced an eye-catching debut effort finishing second at the Vaal. It was a creditable run from a wide gate, and he should go on to open his account. (5) ANGLE OF ATTACK has made breathing noises but will be having his third start and has more to come after making progress in a decent race last time.(8) UNCLE BOB was still quite inexperienced in his second outing but did kick on as well and needs to be included.(2) GIVE ME A CHANCE is not without a chance of earning.
Race 4 (1,600m)
Hawwaam filly (1) KORCULA is knocking on the door.
Juvenile (9) SHABEEN QUEEN progressed nicely second time and looks a threat.
(3) FLYING WORLD had finished second twice before her last-start fourth. It could be the right race to open her account as she has drawn well.
