Has finished seventh at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 38 lengths behind Manila Ghost over 320m. Would be better placed in something easier.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 401m at this track. Likely to find this a bit tough.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in her races. The latest effort was a 7 length eighth over 401m at this track. Not doing enough to be considered.
