Verdict

There really isn’t that much strength in depth in this and most of these are going to end up running in low grade handicaps and won’t want to blow any potential marks getting close to the 132-rated GLOBAL STAGE who remains a maiden. He should really put that factor right here if he’s whatever was ailing him on his last start – the break may well have done him good. Nicely Indeed has the form to push the favourite without being good enough to beat him. Templenaboe has shown ability but it would be a surprise to see him topple the big 2 and Bafana Blue is the only other one who looks worthy of a mention.
