ZEITZ (7) is a talented galloper resuming in far easier grade. Placed 2/3 fresh. First try here but expected to go close this class. DAVE THE KING (6) last appeared when he finished 13th over 1600m in the G1 Queen's Plate at Kenilworth on January 10. Unbeaten here in two tries and has a great record fresh. Anticipating a bright start to this prep. KING PELLES (3) lines up for the first time since March 15. Looking to emulate his win at this track at the beginning of last prep. Makes plenty of appeal. IMPOSING (5) was beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth in a 1200m contest at Greyville last time out. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
