Verdict

Verdict

Trainer Alan Greeff has a very strong hand in this race. FAIRY KNIGHT will not have regular rider Richard Fourie aboard this time but is course and distance suited and is capable of scoring. MERCANTOUR has been a disappointemnt of late but Richard Fourie rides him and he would not be a surprise winner. GUY GIBSON was a lucky winner last time out and could benefit from that confident-boosting victory so must be respected. ANUSCHKA'S WORLD steps up in distance but has been very effective of late. SILVONIAN has also been very good recently and can follow up on an easy last win. FIREALLEY is not an easy ride but might earn some more money.

Top Tip: Mercantour (2)
Watch out for: Fairy Knight (1)
