Returns from a five-month break after placing in both career starts, each at this track and distance. She was third to Dream Trip last start, beaten just over five lengths when near the top of an open market, after also running third on debut behind Margate at long odds. Barrier 1 gives her every chance to use that consistency, and she sets a solid winning standard fresh.

Back from an eight-month break after finishing seventh on debut at Greyville, beaten five and a half lengths behind Too Fast To Fiesta. She was at generous odds there and has not yet shown the race form required to trouble the main hopes. The R300,000 2yo in training purchase has scope to be better, but she has a fair bit to find first-up.

Finished sixth on debut at this track, beaten five and a half lengths behind Sani Pass after being rated only an outside chance in the betting. She is second-up now and has some profile appeal from the stable, but the race performance itself was only fair. A sharper finish is required before she can be treated as more than a rough hope.

Lifted last start when second to Sauterelle at Durbanville, beaten two lengths after firming near the top of an open market. That was a clear advance on her previous ninth behind Stealth, when unwanted in betting and beaten just over six lengths over 1000m. Now race fit and proven enough at 1200m, she has a sound place profile.

Made an encouraging debut when fourth to Sauterelle at Durbanville, beaten just over four lengths despite starting at long odds. She has only one run to assess, so the evidence is still thin, but the effort was competitive enough to suggest she can build second-up. The R250,000 yearling purchase can press for a minor cheque if she takes the expected natural step.

Makes her debut without race form to measure against these, so the betting may be important. The family offers some interest, with Kitty Cat Chat a G2 winner and Whoa Whoa Whoa also G2-placed, but her own profile is untested. From a small stable with limited debut data supplied, she is difficult to recommend strongly on first sight.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a plain debut at Durbanville, finishing tenth behind Georgie Girl and beaten over 10 lengths when unwanted in the market. The Justin Snaith stable commands respect and has strong track numbers, but that first run leaves her with plenty to bridge. She must find much more to get competitive.

Went very close at Durbanville last start, finishing third to Getorix Princess and beaten just under a length at long odds. That was a strong return to form after a sixth over 1400m the run prior, and her 1200m record reads well with two placings from three attempts. Race fit and suited back at this trip, she has a strong case to break through.

Placed on debut at Durbanville over 1000m, finishing third to African Kingfisher and beaten three and a half lengths despite starting at big odds. She rises to 1200m for the first time, which is the main query, but the R725,000 yearling purchase has the top-ranked track jockey and trainer together. With natural improvement, she is right in the winning mix.

Returns from a three-month break after a sound debut fifth at Durbanville, beaten two and a half lengths behind One Step at long odds. That was not a bad starting point, and Andrew Fortune taking the ride is a genuine asset at this venue. Even so, she remains a lightly raced maiden still looking for a stronger finishing edge.

Has been competitive in both starts without yet placing, most recently fifth to Getorix Princess at Durbanville when beaten a length and a half after starting near the top of betting. Her debut fourth behind Georgie Girl was even closer, beaten just under a length at generous odds. Senorita Lolita has a recent edge, but third-up she still has each-way claims.
