Group 1 placegetter PURE PREDATOR (6) did a good job last time, finishing in the money when second over 1m4 1/4f in the G1 SA Derby at this track. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Best figures should see him run well. Group 2 placegetter HOTARUBI (7) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 12 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1m4 1/4f at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. This doesn't look as hard so he is likely to feature in the finish. Group 1 winner ARAGOSTA (2) lines up on the back of a 4 length third over 1m2f at this track. Sure to measure up. Champions Challenge winner PUERTO MANZANO (1) produced another moderate effort last start when 19 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1m2f at this track. Capable of featuring prominently.
