Verdict

NONIS GOLD CLASS (4) galloped in the run but settled down and extended her run of top-three finishes last time out, beaten 1.4 metres into second over 1 5/16m at this track. Can feature if she brings her Mitch Manners. AFRICAN GALA (5) produced a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1 5/16m here on November 27. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. BLACK VIPER (1) is a consistent performer with three top-three finishes on the trot. Only needs things to fall his way and the good recent form can convert to a well-deserved win. THE RED MENACE (2) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fourth at this circuit over 1 5/16m. Top-three conveyance.
