PUERTO PLATA (2) was sent out favourite last start but found one better over 1m3f on turf at this track. First try on synthetic. Richard Fourie who has two wins when partnering stays on. Well placed and should be in the finish. HAROLD THE DUKE (5) finished second two runs back at Fairview then improved last time out to score by a neck over 1m3f at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DUKE OF OXFORD (4) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a lay-off, the latest when seventh over 7f at Scottsville. Cherry-ripe now and is among the leading chances. NOTHINGELSEMATTERS (1) turned in another moderate effort last start when 4 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1m2f at Fairview. Well placed to bounce back.
