CAPTAIN BOMBSHELL (6) was a narrow winner by 0.9 lengths at this track in a then second at Greyville last time. Will appreciate the drop in the weights. Has been in sound form this prep with a win and a placing from three starts. Among the leading chances. Group 2 placegetter SUN BLUSHED (2) finished third two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 1.75 lengths over 5f at Greyville. R A Venniker scored on him last time and retains the mount. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he deserves plenty of thought. TEFLON MAN (5) is a promising type who scored at his only run last prep nine weeks ago over 6f at Kenilworth. Goes well when fresh including a win and one minor placings. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. One of the main contenders. SOVEREIGN STATE (3) resumes after a break of five months. Hoping for a repeat of his debut win over 5f at this track to kick off last prep. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
