SECRET CHORD (1) returns after five months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 5¾f at this track. Rates on top and is a great chance to break through. INSPECTOR JAMES (9) is on debut for the J A Janse Van Vuuren stable. Two-year-old gelding by What A Winter from Amatori. One to keep close tabs on, particularly if popular with punters. KING HARRY (5) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 7 lengths when fifth over 5f at this track. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. One of the main contenders. GRAND OASIS (8) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5¾f at this track, beaten 8 lengths into seventh. Has the ability to produce a better result.
