Sole win came in April 2024 and finished fifth of 6 in handicap at Turffontein (40/1) 12 days ago, beaten 1¾ lengths. Returns to Vaal with this drop back to sprint distance which might suit better.

5/2
Has shown mixed form with a neck second in a 17-runner handicap at Vaal over 6f (16/1). Won a 13-runner handicap at Turffontein over 6f (5/1) 12 days ago. Has to be respected back at this course despite the drop in trip.

Forecasts

Cosmic Queen (11/10), Global Thunder (5/2), Bosum Buddy (7/1), Kia Kaha (9/1), Stars And Bra's (10/1), The Navy Lark (14/1), Virginia Beach (18/1), Raining Rubies (22/1)

Verdict

COSMIC QUEEN is the standout choice despite a fourth-place finish last time. Global Thunder arrives in winning form after scoring at Turffontein 12 days ago and merits respect despite the drop in distance. Kia Kaha has shown solid recent form and should be competitive returning to this course.
