THE STANDARD (13) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when third over 6½f at Ellis Park (Dirt). Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Will prove tough to beat. GNOME (15) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when second over 5½f at Ellis Park (Turf). Should be poised just off the lead. Likely to feature. HEARTILY (14) is a two-year-old colt at the races for the first time. From an elite family that includes black type success, being by Complexity from We Love Lucy. Comes from a stable which has an impressive strike rate with the first-starters. Looks one of the better chances despite a tricky gate. WONDER MIST (8) is facing the starter for the first time. By Candy Ride and comes from the W A Ward stable. Top-three chance.
