Verdict

Verdict

Consistent UMZINGELI WENYATHI has the form and experience in Cape Town races to fight out the finish on his Highveld return but HIGHWAYTOTHESKY and PLAY WITH THE WIND (engaged to run at an earlier meeting) could improve sufficiently to challenge for top honours. PHALA MILLIONS and WESTERN WISHES have also shown enough recently to play leading roles.

Top Tip: Umzingeli Wenyathi (1)
Watch out for: Magic Carpet Ride (3)
