Forecasts

Miami Mountain (4/5), Trajanus (11/8), Wayne (8/1), Red Sunrise (14/1), No Hesitation (25/1), Epidaurus (25/1), Indian Spice (40/1), Gold Platina (40/1), Rock My Boat (100/1), Talkoftheheights (100/1), Olympic Admiral (100/1)

Verdict

MIAMI MOUNTAIN produced a promising first effort when runner-up in a maiden at Turffontein 26 days ago he looks to hold sound claims of going one place better with definite potential for better still. Trajanus could provide the sternest threat, while Gold Platina is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the line up.
