PUERTO PLATA (8) finished 3 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1m1 1/2f at Fairview All Weather two weeks ago as 11/8 favourite. Steps up in distance. Richard Fourie who has two wins when partnering stays on. Among the leading chances. MAGICAL MIDLANDS (2) improved sharply on his seventh two starts back at Fairview All Weather with a win over 1m2f at this track eight weeks ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can continue the winning form. LIGHT WITHOUT (3) finished 1.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1m2f at this track eight weeks ago. Steps up in distance. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. One of the main contenders. THEN IN FOCUS (4) was unplaced two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 1m2f at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths into fifth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
