GRAND CRESCENDO (1) was beaten just a head last start when second in a small field over 5¾f at Turffontein Standside at the first run of the campaign. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Expecting a bold showing. MUSICAL SCORE (2) is a talented gelding who was tested in tougher class last time when fifth over 1m in the G2 Gauteng Guineas at Turffontein Standside. Should be prominent from the outset. Best form puts him right in this. BUFFALO STORM CODY (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a lay-off on 11/28/2024, finishing fourth and beaten 3.5 lengths over 7f at Vaal. Definite top-three chance. THE AFRICA HOUSE (4) closed off strongly last start to get up for third, beaten half a length, over 7f at Turffontein Standside. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Don't underestimate.
