Pinot Nero shows promise with consistent recent form and an advantageous inside barrier draw. The gear change and recent gelding operation could lead to improved performance. While yet to place, the combination of factors and the experienced Grant Buckley in the saddle make Pinot Nero a strong second choice in this maiden field.
Toranaga presents as an intriguing prospect as a first-up runner. While lacking form data, the combination of an experienced jockey and a neutral barrier draw suggests potential. The unknown factor could work in its favor, possibly offering a class edge over more exposed runners in this maiden field.

Scone RSL (Bm58)
Despite limited race experience, the filly's raw talent and weight advantage make her the top selection.
Quick Sharp has shown consistent form and boasts a strong track record at Scone. Well-weighted and suited by the distance, this mare presents as a solid second choice. The main concerns are the long break since her last run and a slight rise in class.
Edge Of Midnight is a consistent placegetter with good recent form. While winless at the distance, the gelding is well-suited by the track conditions and has an experienced jockey aboard. The main drawback is the slightly higher weight compared to some rivals.
However, inconsistent recent form and a rise in class are concerns. The wide barrier draw may also be challenging.
