PAINITE (6) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Not as effective last time out when third over 1m2f at Fairview, beaten 5.5 lengths. Has raced five times here and has never missed the frame. The engagement of Luyolo Mxothwa is noteworthy. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. DOWNING SEVEN (4) finished 14th last time out over 1m2f on turf at Fairview, beaten 27 lengths. First try on synthetic. Expect he will be prominent. CENTRAL CITY (2) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when sixth over 1m at Fairview. First try at the trip but he strips fitter and is among the leading chances. THEN IN FOCUS (7) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on January 5 finishing fourth and beaten 6 lengths over 1m4f at Fairview. Can make his presence felt.
