LAST MARTINI (4) comes here off a break of four months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 1m1/4f at Hawthorne. Rates highly and should take some beating. GOPHER GOLD (1) pushed forward when resuming last time and boxed on to finish 3.5 lengths away in second over 1m at this track (Dirt). In a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. EAST RAND (6) is fitter for two runs from a lay-off, last start finishing 5 lengths away in second over 1m at this track (Dirt). Right in the mix. MACEDONIAN RULER (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
