Verdict

It's difficult to see past TAMARKUZ (NAP), who has really taken to this surface. He could hardly have been more impressive when completing a double last month where he had four lengths to spare over Gold City and should lead all the way. There should be more to come from US Group 3 winner Romansh, who is just getting the hang of the track. Pylon has won eight times on the Dirt track at Vaal and though not seen since May he'll be tuned up for this by Mike De Kock. Ocean Tempest wasn't far behind Ungiyo on Turf here in January and was well in front of Heavy Metal at Chester in August but, unlike the former Mark Johnston inmate who made a successful debut for his new yard last week, he doesn't have a good record on the all-weather.
