1. Galactic Storm | Hasn't run a bad race and narrowly beaten when heavily backed last start at Ascot. Clint Johnston-Porter has had success aboard previously. Must respect. |
2. My Dilemma | Ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Ascot on a soft track and gets the winkers on for the first time. Won once this prep at Ascot three runs back. Expect to be right up there. |
3. Success Play | Has two wins from nine attempts this campaign but faded to finish four lengths off the winner last start at Ascot on a soft track. Drawn ideally. Right in this. |
4. Mosquito | Amongst the placegetters first two attempts this prep and in the money last start running second at Ascot on a soft track. Up in journey. Can surprise. |
5. War Gem | Won once this prep at Belmont eight runs back and could struggle from the widest barrier. Up in journey. Prefer others. |
6. The Velvet Queen | Just missed as favourite last start at Ascot when first up and won two of five as a favourite. Chris Parnham has had success aboard previously. Strong claims. |
7. Gorgeous Gossip | |
8. Elsueno | In the money last start running third at Pinjarra Scarpside on a soft track but has to take the step up to metropolitan grade. Not in this. |
9. Victory Vixen | Won once this prep at Pinjarra three runs back and faded from front position to finish just off the winner last start at Northam. Rough claims. |
10. Dash Of Brandy | Was able to place at long odds last start at Pinjarra Scarpside when fresh and ran third at Ascot when last second-up. Likely to race off the speed. Prefer to watch go around. |
11. Julyn | Finished midfield last start at Northam and should run fitter for past attempts. Hard to get enthused. |
12. Zephyra | Came on strong in the end to win at only start at Ascot and rates highly with Patrick Carbery aboard. Each-way claims. |
