1. Diamond Thora | Unsighted last start at Sandown but comes back to race at a country level. Won once this prep at Echuca three runs back. Prefer others. |
2. Elvaric | Bolted in last start at Sale on a soft track and Michael Walker a bonus. Goes down in weight. Solid claims. |

4. Alovelybrownhorse | Back from 22 week spell. Winner despite being unwanted in the betting last start to break maiden at Geelong on a soft track and likes the cut in the ground. Must respect. |
5. Bella Bee | Finished fifth last start at Pakenham Park when first up and won at Kyneton in only second-up attempt. Should race on the speed. Hard to have. |
6. Scream Dream | Came on to finish midfield last start at Moonee Valley when first up and will appreciate the cut in the ground. Draws to do no work. Leading hope. |
7. Energy Within | Won once this prep at Geelong three runs back and racing back from the city. Up in weight. Not the worst. |
8. Be Miss Luchy | Coming off a win at Moe but awkwardly drawn. 3kg claim should help but not in this. |
9. Changing Tracks | Won once this prep at Cranbourne five runs back and finished midfield last start at Sale on a soft track. Drops in weight. Rough claims. |
10. Pindi Pride | Back after 23 week break and resumes well running third at Moe when last first-up. Without a win in five runs at Pakenham Park. Prefer others. |
11. Knitting | Won last start at Moe and 3kg claim should help. Rates highly with Ms Mikaela Lawrence retaining the ride. Well placed. |
12. Amateurish | Won once this prep at Geelong two runs back and ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Werribee on a heavy track. Goes down in weight. Knockout hope. |
13. Ryan's Girl | Amongst the placegetters last start running third at Kilmore and won once this prep at Cranbourne four runs back. Goes down in weight. Sneaky chance. |
