BACCHUS (9) is a talented gelding who has been in the money at both appearances. Is at the races for the first time since he scored over 7f at Turffontein Standside on June 30. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Will play a major role. WILLOW EXPRESS (3) improved sharply on his eighth two starts back at Turffontein Standside with success over 1m at Vaal three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths. No reason he cannot salute again. SPRING TRADITION (8) lines up on the back of a 7 length fifth over 7¼f at this track. Strong top-three chance. DJ JUNIOR (7) finished third last time over 1m at Vaal when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 6 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run.
