POINTER (3) made the expected natural improvement when shedding her maiden tag at the second time of asking. She raced from just off the pace, quickened up well and drew clear of the opposition. It must be noted that the horse that finished second that day has come out and won since. She is a progressive type and she can follow up with another victory. GIMMEFABULOUS (2) was in need of her comeback run over 1200m at the Vaal last time. She would have come on from the run and should strip much fitter. She is back against her own age group and improvement is expected. FORCE EIGHT (1) took on males in her last start over 1200m on the Inside course. Muzi Yeni steps back into the saddle and she should have a say in the outcome of this contest. QUEEN OF FIRE (4) ran a fair race to finish third of seven over 1400m last time. It must be noted that the winner of that race has come out and won again since. She drops back in distance and can finish in the placings. Something for the Multiples: EMBLEM OF THE SUN (5)
