RED AMBER got up where it matters most to win over 1200m last time. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. The daughter of Erik The Red will love the rise to 1500m. She is a progressive type and should give the males a run for their money. TENJIKU won a game race over 1400m at Turffontein last time. He returns from a 14-week break which would have done him the world of good. If not in need of the run, he can follow up with another victory. MIGHTY EAGLE was an easy winner of his last start over 1450m on the Turffontein Inside course. The son of Danon Platina is in a good space and he merits healthy respect. ROYALE JACKET showed good improvement when second over 1450m on the Turffontein Inside course last time. The gelding and tongue-tie seems to have done the trick. Kobeli Lihaba retains the ride and if confirming his recent improvement, he can finish in the placings.
