Gavin Lerena rides Now You See Me in Race 6 today (Pic- Candiese Lenferna)
Jimmy The Rich writes that Now You See Me from the Lucky Houdalakis yard takes her place in Race 6.
She was ultra-impressive when winning her last start over 1450m on the Classic course, two weeks ago.
She raced from a handy position, quickened up well and drew clear of the opposition.
The 6yo mare meets a similar type of field this afternoon and with Gavin Lerena in the saddle, she should follow up.
Trainer Chris Jonker saddles Oyster King in Race 5. He is much better than his last start over 1600m on the Turffontein Inside course.
It must be noted that the horse that finished third that day has come out and won since. He has won his only attempt over this course and distance.
His last victory came under Winning Form-sponsored jockey Raymond Danielson and he can return to winning ways.
Warren Kennedy will not be riding today as he is medically indisposed.
