JAFFA was heavily supported but too far out of his ground when a fast-finishing 3rd over 1700m last time. On that evidence, this extended trip should unlock the improvement needed to resume winning ways. Hard-knockers STORM AHEAD, UNSOLVED RIDDLE and PEACE TREATY have both the form and experience at this level to pose a threat. Lightly raced FORCE PUBLIQUE could also have more to offer over this distance, while recent maiden winner NARETOI may be leniently treated off his current mark on handicap debut. Class-dropper STEP INTO IT is dangerous to discount in his peak outing off a reduced mark.
Slow-carried 200m when 9/2 and 5th of 8 runners, 6.35 lengths behind QUICKFREEZE over 1450m at VAAL CLASSIC on 27 January 26. Fitter, MR/Class drop a +.
Slow - examined/nil when 33/10 and 10th of 11 runners, 11.75 lengths behind WORLD ORDER over 1800m at TURFFONTEIN STANDSIDE on 01 February 26. Ran R1 Vaal Classic 5 Feb.
Pace - no extra when 20/1 and 4th of 11 runners, 2.00 lengths behind WORLD ORDER over 1800m at TURFFONTEIN STANDSIDE on 01 February 26. Seldom far off the action.
Slow into stride when 33/1 and 8th of 9 runners, 4.20 lengths behind POMOZELOUS over 2400m at VAAL on 24 January 26. Unlikely threat form+draw.
