EXPRESS YOURSELF produced a good first run for the Candice and Tammy Dawson stable. He set the pace and stayed on nicely at the finish. The son of Trippi would have come on from the outing and should strip much fitter. Ryan Munger retains the ride and he may be the one to side with. MOCHA FRAPPE rallied late when third over this distance at Turffontein last time. He finished second in his penultimate run on this course. Gavin Lerena may be able to get the best out of him where it matters most. EIFFEL TOWER ran a fair race over this distance at Turffontein last time. The son of Potala Palace has dropped to a competitive rating and should have a say in the outcome of this contest. UNSOLVED RIDDLE has fair consistent form lines to his name. He has won once and finished third once from three starts over this C&D. Apprentice Jacey Botes takes the 2.5kgs off his back which will assist his cause.
