Missed the frame latest (31.08) when sixth over 525m at this track in a Class 3. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Looks a place chance at best.

Nearing another win after her success on February 21 at this track over 525m. Last start was third over 525m in 30.53, behind Know Expense. More than capable and has to be included.

Goes well at this track and trip. Last start finished last in a Class 3 on January 23 over 295m at this track behind Opawa Bobbie beaten 9 lengths (17.67). Can bounce back. One of the main chances.

Was out of placings last time when fourth (30.74) at this track in a Class 3. Will jump from box 6 for the first time. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Latest effort finished 5th on March 6 over 525m at this track behind Let Him Cook beaten 11 lengths (30.56) in a Class 4/5. Has run blistering time here with a 30.03 PB at the distance. Hard to beat.
