GARDENER'S PRIDE (3) gets the top billing on the strength of a much kinder setup after two plain 1600m runs, with the sharp weight relief and previous win at this track giving him the chance to rebound. His 1200m record is the obvious qualification, but this looks a better platform than he has had at his past couple. SCANDALIZE (2) brings the cleanest recent form, having won a FM BM81 at Greyville by just over a length after a close BM70 third, and her two wins plus three placings from seven starts at the distance make her a serious danger. MVELELO (1) has not been far away in two BM82 sixths and returns to a track-and-trip profile of two wins from three attempts, with barrier 1 and the claim helping his case. SAUDI SWEEP (6) has to prove the last-start neck win at this track was no one-off, but she is a track-and-trip winner with weight relief and a useful jockey-horse record.
