2nd pick6th
6I Am Steffi
Recent synthetic 2nd highlights talent despite first up after 157 days (1:0-0-0). Barrier 6 workable inside bias, midfield suits fast tempo/long straight. Edges Bosco on class/experience but lacks Dawn On Me's track recency.
3rd pickWon
7Nefradite
Nefradite's consistency (67% place rate) and recent 1000m 3rd make solid threat second up (1:0-1-0). Light weight advantage but barrier 8 hurts inside bias preference.

4All Adore
Recent Class 1 2nd on Good shows class edge over lightly raced rivals. Soft 5 record (3rd Moruya) suitable.
2nd pickScratched
1Dekadance
Dekadance's form prioritised with 7:2-2-2, elite Soft record (4:2-1-1), perfect distance stats (4:2-1-1). First up 2:1-0-1 viable. Barrier 5 suits bias, likely midfield suits fast tempo/long straight. Recent 2nd Leeton strong. Better soft/class form than unproven risers despite spell.
3rd pickScratched
7Voltage Lass
Recent Goulburn BM58 2nd confirms class. High track condition suitability, inside-midfield map suits bias/fast tempo. Gear change positive. Stronger proven BM58 form than All Adore's rise; excellent place chance.

Barrier 5 ideal for midfield settling on leader-favouring Sapphire Coast (33% leader win rate). Luke Pepper stable in form.

Has soft exposure unlike many rivals. Barrier 7 fine for Sapphire Coast 1400m where barriers neutral. Improving 3YO in consistent maiden grade suits galloping track.
3rd pickScratched

Soft proven but barrier 12 hurts in leader-favouring setup (0% backmarker wins). Strong finisher could reel in if tempo moderate-fast, but map penalises vs on-pace rivals. Good threat if gets cover.
