Race Tip
EIGHT ON EIGHTEEN (2) finished second two runs back in the G1 Cape Guineas at this track then improved last time out to score by half a length as favourite over 1m2f in the G1 The Met at this track. Tackling a more suitable race so he is likely to play a big role. GARRIX (1) finished 2.75 lengths from the winner in second last start over 1m1f in the G3 Politician Stakes at this track. Has a strong record this course, scoring at two of four starts. Must be respected. ZEITZ (6) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track two starts back then landed the prize by 2.75 lengths last time out over 1m1f in the G3 Politician Stakes at this track. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. NATIVE RULER (7) lines up on the back of a 3 length third over 1m1f at this track. Should run very well.
