6Wal's Angels
Last start Class 4 winner stepping up in grade but maps perfectly for this tactical Queanbeyan circuit. The barrier draw and light weight offset the class rise, while the horse's consistent Queanbeyan form and strong second-up record provide confidence. The significant class jump is the main concern.

7Butterfly Style
The good track conditions suit perfectly and the barrier draw provides tactical flexibility. Class rise is the main concern but the horse's upward trajectory and speed suggest she can handle the step up.
3rd pick4th
5Soul Lady
Local specialist with outstanding Queanbeyan form including a win at this exact distance. Recent form is solid and the light weight helps, but the wide barrier and class rise present challenges. Her track knowledge and proven ability at the trip make her a genuine chance.
