6Vanlee
The Joseph Pride stable is in good form, and the booking of Adam Hyeronimus is positive. While unproven on soft tracks, her overall profile suggests she should be competitive in this field.
3rd pick3rd
5Sheeza Tricka
Sheeza Tricka brings recent racing experience and consistency at this level. While yet to place, she has soft track experience and an inside draw which could be advantageous. The retention of Winona Costin is a positive, but she'll need to find improvement to challenge the top picks.
Value pick5th
8Racy Time
Racy Time is the unknown quantity in the field as a first-starter. The Blake Ryan stable can produce winners on debut, and the gear changes suggest race readiness. Jay Ford is a strong jockey booking, and the mid-range barrier draw should allow for a good run.
