WINTER GAMBLE (7) is back after a break of 11 weeks. At the last run before the layoff she finished fourth over 7f at this track. Well placed and happy to have her on top. RUBY REX (2) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage seventh last start, beaten 6 lengths over 6¼f at Durbanville. Backmarker who keeps coming. Well placed and worth another chance. LOWVELD LILY (3) is on debut for the Justin Snaith stable. Two-year-old filly by Legislate from Impala Lily. One to keep tabs on, particularly if popular in betting. DUCHESS OF PALOMA (6) was unplaced two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 6¼f at Durbanville, beaten 3 lengths into fourth. Has her share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
