Going: Good
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneLINEBACKER has won two classics on the bounce. What makes his feat more amazing is that he was dropping from 2000 metres to 1600 metres and still won in style. Another Cape male KOMMETDIEDING lost his unbeaten record in that race but had valid excuses and he could put the record straight this time. SECOND BASE has powerful form behind the likes of champion elect Malmoos and multiple champion Got The Greenlight. He looked dangerous in the Champions Challenge and that kind of prep could make the Highveld runner a big threat. RUSSIAN ROCK, THE GATEKEEPER, RASCALLION and COPPER MOUNTAIN are strong candidates too.
