Multiple Group 1 placegetter DAVE THE KING (8) is racing well without winning. Last start finished fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 1m2f in the G1 Champions Challenge at Turffontein Standside. Sure to go well. Champions Challenge winner ROYAL VICTORY (6) built on a nice third when fresh from a lay-off two starts back at this track with success as favourite over 1m2f in the G1 Champions Challenge at Turffontein Standside six weeks ago, getting home by half a length. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is a big chance to go back-to-back. THE SHEPHERD (1) resumed over 7f at this track last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by 1.3 lengths. Open to plenty of improvement and can go on with it. Group 2 placegetter SHOEMAKER (9) scored a dominant victory at Turffontein Standside over 1m1f at his latest appearance on March 9. Has found the right race and is worth including.
