Tasman Jewel comes off a strong second at Albany last start and drops significantly in class from BM58+ to maiden level. The good barrier draw and proven soft track form make her a strong threat, despite her winless record.
However, his poor soft track record and winless status are concerns on today's Soft 6 surface.
Hot Affair represents value with the addition of blinkers for the first time. Her recent form shows consistency with close finishes, and the gear change could provide the improvement needed. The stable combination has a solid record.

The significant class drop from previous metropolitan races to this maiden, combined with proven soft track ability, makes this the most likely winner despite the wide draw.
The gear change and proven trainer/jockey combination provide confidence, though the long spell and limited experience create some uncertainty.
Peigi showed significant improvement last start with a strong second placing at this track. The inside barrier draw and proven ability on soft tracks, combined with the improving form trajectory, makes this a strong place chance with winning potential.

Marbelup Country Estate Hcp (C2)
Last start Class 1 winner at Ascot stepping up in distance but brings the best recent form. The inside barrier is crucial at Albany's tight layout.
Runner-up at this track and distance last start in similar company. The addition of blinkers first time could provide the edge needed, and her soft track placing record suggests she handles conditions. The break between runs is a concern but class suggests she's competitive.
Progressive three-year-old who broke through for maiden win last start at this track. Could surprise if handling the step up.
Long shot with gear change angle and light weight. The removal of bar plates could improve her action, and she has experience at the distance. However, her soft track record is concerning and recent form suggests she's struggling. Value play only if gear change works.

Desert Ora presents as the standout selection after winning her maiden convincingly last start at this track on soft going. While stepping up in class is a concern, her recent form and suitability to conditions make her the most likely winner.
The addition of a tongue tie first time and favorable barrier draw are positives, but his poor soft track record is a significant concern given today's conditions.
Four Seas comes off a recent win and has a strong partnership with trainer-jockey Casey Hunter. However, the soft track conditions and wide barrier present significant challenges for this consistent performer.

Perfect Sister stands out with a perfect record at this track and distance, winning her only previous start here.

Second up from a spell with the stable's strong preparation patterns.
Prince brings excellent recent form with a close second at this track in stronger company. The wide barrier and class rise are concerns, but his current form trajectory and proven ability at this level make him a strong winning chance.
