1st Apache Too (Ramzan -4 kg/Dixon S 59kg draw 2) This unraced The Apache gelding is an athletic sort who has been stamped by his sire. He was green but when the penny dropped he accelerated nicely. 62.94 seconds
2nd 0,75 Well Said (Brown/Anthony A 58kg draw 4) This unraced Main Aim filly is not big and is still immature and gangly. She had been working well at home and showed fair pace here and strode out well although she was green and was not asked to do a lot. 63.07 seconds
3rd 1,00 Stolen Paradise (Ferraris -1.5 kg/Howells A 59kg draw 7) This unraced Fort Wood gelding is a half-brother to the Grade 3 Track And Ball Derby winner Cape Speed.

4th 1,25 Daidala (Sakayi -2.5 kg/Van Zyl (Jnr) S 58kg draw 1) This unraced King’s Chapel filly is immature but has scope and displayed a fair action so can improve. 63.15 seconds
5th 1,35 Just Prime (Moodley/Badenhorst A 59kg draw 11) This unraced Just As Well colt is strongly built and well put together. He was green throughout but showed a fair action and stayed on well. 63.17 seconds
6th 2,10 Magic Magesh (Pagel/Naidoo A 59kg draw 8) This unraced Al Miqdaam colt was green early and after being shuffled outward for a run came home quite nicely but it was a very slow time. 63.29 seconds

8th 3,10 Black Warrior (Khan/Howells A 59kg draw 5) This unraced Judpot gelding is a half-sister to the top class Fiorella. He is still unfurnished and doesn’t have the smoothest of actions. 63.46 seconds
9th 3,35 Nashville (Veale/Drier S 59kg draw 3) This unraced Jackson gelding has some scope and a nice action and was just held together. 63.5 seconds
10th 4,85 Magic Yevahn (Jacobs -4 kg/Naidoo A 59kg draw 6) This unraced Al Miqdaam colt is not an imposing ort. He dwelt and threw his head up early and after being hampered in the straight lost his action and was eased back. 63.75 seconds
11th 8,35 Turkish Lira (Pheiffer/Gadsby S 58kg draw 10) This unraced Ideal World filly is a full-sister to two-time winner over 2000m Ataturk. She is a rangy sort typical of the Ideal Worlds and will need a lot further. She dwelt and was then green and outpaced but displayed a fair stride. 64.33 seconds
