Despite lack of form data, King Of Light presents as the top selection due to several key advantages. The inside barrier draw (2) is ideal for soft track conditions at Pinjarra. William Pike's booking is significant, and the 56kg weight is favorable. Trainer D L Morton's success with soft track runners adds confidence.
Bannered shows promising form, particularly with a recent second place on a heavy track. The gelding is improving and maintains consistency at this class level. Lucy Warwick's booking is a positive, though the 56kg weight is slightly higher than optimal for soft conditions. The lack of a win is a minor concern.
Aberdeen Flyer presents an interesting proposition with the strong jockey-trainer combination and gear change. The 56kg weight is advantageous for soft conditions. Limited soft track and distance experience add some uncertainty.
The gear change and strong connections are positives. However, recent form decline and the class rise are concerns.

Coondle comes into the race with recent winning form and has shown ability on soft tracks. However, the class rise and some inconsistency in form are factors to consider.

Kiralui presents as the top selection with a strong soft track record and consistent recent form. The mare is well-weighted and ideally drawn in barrier 2, which should allow for a positive position in running. While the 66-day break is a slight concern, her overall profile suggests she's well-placed to succeed in this event.
The gelding is likely to settle midfield and should be suited by the expected fast pace. While lacking wins at the track and distance, his recent form and racing pattern make him a strong contender in this field.
On Patrol is a consistent performer with a strong record at the distance. The gelding is well-drawn in barrier 4 and has the experienced Chris Parnham in the saddle. While the long break and limited soft track form are concerns, his overall profile suggests he can be competitive in this race.
His proven soft track record and current race fitness are positives, though the wide barrier and weight are challenges.

Forever Boy presents as the standout selection with strong recent form, including a win and second place in his last two starts. With a 33% win rate and 44% place rate, he's proven consistent and reliable. The soft track should suit, and the 56.5kg weight is advantageous.
Fat Roy Slim brings proven class to the race with the highest career earnings. His soft track record is impressive with 4 wins from 10 starts. Recent form is consistent with a 3rd place last start. While carrying top weight, he's shown ability to perform under similar conditions. The wider barrier is a concern but mitigated by his early speed.
Dennis Choux presents as a solid each-way prospect with consistent recent form, including a win and multiple placings. His soft track record is respectable, and the 57kg weight is competitive. While slightly outclassed by the top two selections, his consistency and jockey booking make him a strong contender for the placings.
Coming off a last-start win, he's showing an improving pattern. The class rise is a concern, but his recent form suggests he's capable of handling the step up.

Fancy Red brings excellent recent form, including a last-start win. The 3YO filly gets in well at the weights and has William Pike aboard, a significant jockey advantage. Has performed on soft tracks and should handle conditions. The inside draw is the main query but overall profile suggests a strong winning chance.
Ideally is on an upward trajectory with a last-start placing in similar company. Gets weight relief here and has soft track experience. Well drawn in barrier 3 which should allow a positive position. The main query is stepping up to this distance for the first time, but overall profile suggests strong place claims with win potential.
Bartime comes off a strong last-start win on heavy going, demonstrating ability in wet conditions. Has a good record at this distance and consistently runs well. The main challenges are the rise in weight and class from last start, but overall profile suggests he can be competitive here.
Has an excellent fresh record and has won on soft going. The booking of Chris Parnham is a positive and the gelding has shown ability in his limited starts. The wide barrier is a concern, but if he can overcome this, he represents good each-way value in this field.

First Encounter brings strong recent form into this race, including a win last start on heavy going. Well-weighted and drawn to get a good run, he should be suited by the likely fast tempo. His soft track record is excellent and he's proven at the distance. The class rise is the main query, but he appears ready for it.
Chollima comes into this race in good form with a win and a second from her last two starts. She has a strong record on soft tracks and is well-weighted for this contest. Lucy Warwick is a positive jockey booking. The main queries are the class rise and her unproven record at both the track and distance.
Miss Skyhigh is the class runner of the field and brings consistent form into this race. William Pike is a significant jockey booking and the mare is proven at the distance. However, she carries top weight, has a wide barrier, and her soft track form is questionable. If she handles the conditions, she's a strong chance.
Arcadia Knight comes off a strong win on heavy going last start. He's well-weighted and has the services of Chris Parnham. The inside barrier should allow him to get a good run. While he faces a class rise and is unproven at both the track and distance, his improving profile and wet track ability make him an interesting value proposition.

The improving form trend, weight advantage, and soft track ability make him well-suited to today's conditions. Despite the wide barrier, his early speed should allow him to overcome this disadvantage.
Californication offers strong value given his consistent form and impressive win rate. His soft track ability and significant class drop are major positives. The long break is a concern, but trainer P W Rowe is known for having horses ready first-up. The wide barrier is mitigated by his early speed.
Lost Gravity's recent form and soft track ability make him a solid contender. The advantageous barrier draw and consistent placing record suggest he's likely to be in the finish. While his win rate is lower than some rivals, his consistency and suitability to conditions make him a strong place chance.
