Progressive mare with exceptional strike rate (6 wins from 9 starts) who dominated last start in Group 3 company over this distance.

Highly consistent mare with excellent strike rate (7 from 13) who has a perfect record at Flemington over this distance. Finished an excellent second in Group 3 company last start over this trip and has the tactical versatility to overcome the wide barrier. Craig Williams retains the ride and should position her perfectly in midfield with cover.

1Alalcance
Talented mare with strong overall record who excels second-up from a spell. Has proven ability on soft tracks and excellent weight-carrying capacity. Tim Clark engaged from a good barrier should ensure perfect positioning in the run. Main query is her moderate last-start performance, but her second-up pattern suggests significant improvement.
