GOLDEN OPERATOR (2) was a dominant winner last time over 7¼f at this track, getting home by 2. 5 lengths. Is going well this campaign, recording a win and a minor placing from three starts. Leading contender. KING HARALD (1) proved too strong two runs ago at Turffontein Inside. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. WILD INTENT (3) was well held in the Summer Cup won by Mocha Blend over 1m2f at Turffontein Standside at his last appearance five months ago. Marco V'rensburg who has two wins when partnering stays on. Has claims on his best figures. ECHO CHECK (4) was safely held when resuming last start over 6f at this track, finishing 13th and beaten 14 lengths. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Not to be discounted.
