Verdict

Verdict

LOVE NOT WAR showed promise over sprint distances as a 2yo so this shorter trip should be more to her liking. Consistent ICONIC WINTER is respected on her Highveld return for a new stable after a productive stint in the Eastern Cape. WINGS OF KILDRA, ADA LOVELACE and EXECUTRIX are out of sorts but capable of having a say in this lineup off reduced ratings.

Top Tip: Love Not War (2)
Watch out for: Wings Of Kildra (1)
