Hollywoodbets-sponsored trainer Cliffie Miller saddles Naval Secret in the lucky last. He has been racing in features in his last three starts. He won a good race in the Non-Black Type Nelson Mandela Bay Racing Poly Challenge over this course and distance, three runs ago.
The son of Captain Al takes a drop-in class. He does have a wide draw of eleven to overcome, but is likely to be switched off near the rear of the field and will be mowing down the frontrunners.
Tuk Tuk from the Gavin Smith stable takes his place in Race 6. He took on stronger company in his last start over 1200m on this course. He has won twice and finished second once from four starts over this course and distance. He takes a drop back in class and on best form shown, he can notch up his fourth career victory.
