STEEL PIER (10) is yet to break through after three career starts. Could only manage to finish fourth last time out over 1m at Turffontein Inside following a minor placing at Turffontein Standside over 7f the run prior. Can break through in this suitable contest. ROYALE JACKET (1) did little and finished 10 lengths from the winner in 13th over 5¾f at Turffontein Standside last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Turffontein Inside the run before. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. SILVER COMET (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 7½f at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fourth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ECHO OF THE WILD (7) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when seventh in a 5¾f contest at Turffontein Standside a week-and-a-half ago. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role.
