ONE FINE WINTER (1) saluted at the first run back from a lay-off last start over 5¾f at Turffontein Standside, scoring by 0. 3 lengths. Has been given a let-up of six weeks since that outing. ANCHORAGE (3) turned in a sound effort last time but found a couple better at Turffontein Standside over 5f, beaten 1. 2 lengths. Cherry-ripe now. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from three starts. Among the leading chances. RIFLE QUEEN (4) resumes after a break of five months. Looking to emulate her debut win over 5¾f at Turffontein Standside to kick off last prep. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. ELEGANTRIX (2) was in the money two starts back at Turffontein Standside but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 4 lengths, at Turffontein Standside over 5¾f. Open to improvement and should be about the mark.
