| 1. Azzam | Struggled so far this preparation and faded to finish 13 lengths off the winner last start at Grafton on a heavy track. Likely to race on the speed in a race with minimal pressure expected. Looking elsewhere. |
| 2. My Sonny's Faith | Ran one and a half lengths back from the winner last start at Taree. Major contender. |
| 3. All At Sea | Taken back from wide barrier 13-3/4 len 10th of 12 (12) $101.00 57.0 Miracle Spin 1400m Newcastle Mdn Plate Heavy(8) May 14. 6 len 8th of 12 (1) $26.00 55.0 Mysterious Lady 1400m Tamworth Mdn Soft(7) May 16. |
| 4. Assertin Lady | Finished seventh last start at Tamworth and well drawn. Commands respect. |
| 5. Cherokee Cherry | Placed last start at Taree on a heavy track but concern is the wide barrier. Not out of it. |
| 6. Diamondsaretrumps | Yet to place in 15 attempts and has not performed in previous attempts in these conditions. Wide barrier is a concern. Seems unlikely. |
| 7. Frizelle | Coming to a new trainer and claim should help but still looks tested. |
| 8. Glam Time | A 51 start maiden and no wins in 11 past runs at Port Macquarie. Concern is the wide barrier. Not keen. |
| 9. Hellion Of Cluster | Came on to finish midfield last start at Grafton on a soft track and should run fitter for past attempts. At least a place chance here. |
| 10. Lady Steps | Yet to place in 10 attempts and faded to finish ninth last start at Armidale on a soft track. Jeff Kehoe not a regular jockey for this trainer. Appears tested. |
| 11. Lanova | Yet to place in seven attempts and finished fifth last start at Muswellbrook on a soft track. Has not won in four outings to Port Macquarie before but still at least a place chance here. |
| 12. Lucielle | Hasn't placed in six runs and faded to finish sixth last start at Grafton. Hard to have. |
| 13. Poetic Impact | A 11 start maiden and gets the blinkers on for the first time. Drawn out wide. Not the worst. |
| 14. Waipio | Narrowly beaten at long odds last start at Taree on a heavy track. Should be near the speed in a race without much early pace and up in journey. Winning chance. |
| 15. Town Beach | Returns from six week let-up and hasn't placed in 25 runs. Unplaced in eight attempts on a heavy track. Looks tested. |
| 16. Honey On Rye | Slowly away 17-1/4 len last of 11 (11) $41.00 58.0 Wanmei 1614m Taree Mdn Soft(6) May 3 (2021). 9-3/4 len 10th of 12 (5) $101.00 56.0 Vain Rich 1300m Armidale Mdn Soft(7) May 6. |
