G1 – 1000m – Turf
| 1 | Dyce | Won the G1 Cape Flying Championship but then failed badly on his return to Joburg. If problems have been sorted out, he will be a massive contender. |
| 2 | William Robertson | Top class sprinter but better over 1200m. Will be running on strongly. |
| 3 | Thunderstruck | Runner-up in the Cape Flying Championship and looks the runner they will all have to beat. |
| 4 | Mover And Shaker | Speedy 1000m specialist but has a lot to do at the weights. Could place. |
| 5 | Sheldon | Back from a rest but was beaten 3.80 lengths by Mover And Shaker last time. An unlikely winner. |
| 6 | Rulership | Beaten 1.75 lengths by Mover And Shaker last time after a rest so should improve. Another who could place. |
| 7 | Pray For Rain | Durban visitor who takes a massive jump in class and would do well to place. |
| 8 | Ziyasha | Honest three-year-old gelding but looks well held by others at the weights. |
| 9 | Ready To Charge | Has ability but tends to jump slowly and is not well weighted. |
| 10 | Kiss Me Captain | Looks well held on form and is probably better over a little further. |
| 11 | Iphiko | Five-year-old mare who has ability but is badly out at the weights with a number of more fancied runners. |
| 12 | Golden Sickle | Well-weighted three-year-old filly who is unbeaten in four starts over the course and distance and comes in with a big winning chance. |
