Stablemates NEXT OF KIN and MY LUCKY CHARM both ran encouraging races in their last starts. The stable elect could be the former on riding arrangements. He should prefer the drop in trip and jumps from the very favourable gate No 1. The latter can't be taken lightly after a fair run on the Highveld last time. DRICUS and GRAND APPEAL have decent form but have slightly wide draws. PRINCE OF TROY is lightly raced and could show more now back on turf over the distance. MAGMA MAGIC wasn't far off in a competitive race last time but needs to get the timing right over 1400m.
