Creditable 2¾ lengths seventh of 13 to Frances Ethel in listed race at Turffontein (9.9f, good, 8/1). Off 166 days. Back down in trip. Not easy to make a case for.
2 wins from 5 runs this year. 4/10, didn't need to improve to win 5-runner minor event at Turffontein (5.8f, good) 26 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Has good chance on form.
4¾ lengths tenth of 11 to Quid Pro Quo in Gr 1 at Scottsville (6f, good, 100/1) 82 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
16/1, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Scottsville (6f, good) 29 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
POINTER should give a good account but has little leeway if anything goes wrong. Perilla is the most likely threat, while Mvulazana shouldn't be ruled out.
