Nov 7 South Africa (Turffontein) form analysis
-
(1) LETS PLAY POKER and (7) DWIGHT EISENHOWER were second on this course over 1,000m recently and should play leading roles again.
(6) BUSSTOPINHOUNSLOW also has the form and experience to acquit himself competitively.
(9) DUCHESS OF SEVILLE also filled the runner-up berth last time over this trip and will make her presence felt in receipt of a sex allowance.
(4) ICHACHA was a beaten short-priced favourite over 1,400m recently but is worth another chance, given the step-up to this extended trip will be more to his liking.
(5) YOJIMBO improved to finish second on his return from a rest, during which he was gelded, and will fight for victory if building on that progress.
(6) SNOW MOON and (1) STORM AHEAD complete the shortlist.
(7) RISING RUSSIAN, (5) QUELLO CHE and (8) LUNAR RAINBOW finished in that order over 1,800m last month and renew rivalry on identical weight terms.
