Lunar Mojo brings the strongest form into this race with consistent placings and a proven ability on heavy tracks. The weight is a slight concern, but as a 3-year-old against older horses, he gets a weight-for-age advantage.
He's likely to lead from barrier 3 and the addition of blinkers could sharpen him up further. The main query is his ability on a heavy track, which he's yet to encounter.
She's coming off a placing last start and drops 2kg in weight. While unproven on heavy, she has soft track experience. The booking of Amy O'Driscoll with her 2kg claim is a positive.

Belnera drops significantly in class and brings consistent form from higher grade races. The wide barrier and lack of heavy track form are concerns, but the class drop could be the key factor in her performance.
Tassy Fox shows an improving form trend and carries a very light weight, which could be advantageous on a heavy track. While yet to place, the conditions could suit her running style.

Pride Of Jezza stands out with consistent form and a strong affinity for heavy tracks. The significant class drop is a major positive, and the inside barrier draw should be advantageous in these conditions. While yet to break through for a win, the gelding's consistent placings and proven ability in heavy going make him a strong contender.
Dantains Prize is showing improving form with recent placings and consistency over the 1400m distance. The lightweight and suitable barrier draw are positives for these conditions. While unproven on heavy tracks, the filly's recent form and weight advantage make her a strong contender in this field.
The filly's lightweight and proven ability on soft tracks are positives. However, the wide barrier and lack of experience at the distance and on heavy tracks are concerns. Still, her recent performances suggest she could be competitive here.
Calpastatin offers value with a previous heavy track placing and a significant class drop. While form has been inconsistent and the distance is a query, the combination of heavy track experience and class relief makes Calpastatin an interesting value proposition in this field.
