NUMZAAN's Western Cape form isn't bad at all. He had bad draws recently and even if again drawn widest after a rest, could still be tough to fend off. RAFIKI races for a stable in hot form and has come to form. He has been campaigned over 1400m and his last two wins were over that distance but he has won over 1600m as well. FOREST JUMP hit top form in his penultimate but then was a little disappointing last time. This poly specialist is never one to ignore. BASIE RAAKVAT ran an encouraging race over the track and trip last time but may just need it.
