THE ABDICATOR (9) was sent out favourite last time and scored by one length over this trip at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins and a placing. Can go on with it. TOUGH TERRAIN (7) ran well below his best last time over 5½f at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths into fourth at 7/2. Reunites with Grant Van Niekerk who has two wins from six rides. Expecting a bold showing. ICY BLAST (2) resumes from a lay-off of three-and-a-half months. Has filled a minor placing at each of his three when resuming runs. Opened last prep with a third over 5f at Durbanville. Worth including. NORDIC CHIEF (6) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when fourth over 5f at this track, beaten 0.7 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
