THE OCTAGON (5) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 1m at this track, scoring by a head. Looks well placed and he can go on with it. DIMAKO'S JET (4) finished 4.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1m at Turffontein Standside when resuming from a lay-off. Steps up in distance. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Will play a major role. LEAO ALADO (2) finished second last time over 1m1f at this track when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 1.75 lengths. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. CIRCLE OF GRACE (3) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing third over 1m1f at this track last time out. Should be prominent from the outset. Must be respected.
