Track has proven suitable before; useful in this grade; not beaten too far when fourth at Vaal when ahead of several of these rivals over 1m (handicap) last month; booking of G Lerena takes the eye; a leading contender if in the same mood as when achieving most recent success and handicapper has cut him some slack.
