RED MAPLE (5) finished fifth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by one length over 1m2f at Vaal. Likely to be there at the finish again. NONE OTHER (2) ran fifth at her latest appearance over 1m at this track, finishing 4 lengths from the winner. Ready to run well. EXPLOSIVE BOND (8) was well in commission last start over 1m4f at this track when third, beaten 7 lengths. Can bounce back over this journey. CRIMSON KING (1) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m2f at this track, beaten 11 lengths. Strips fitter and can play a big role.
