POCKET PISTOL (4) was prominent from the outset when third over 6f at this track last time out. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Leading contender.

Should be prominent from the outset. Leading contender. BAT PAD (3) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths starting at 7/1. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. The engagement of Sonja Logan is noteworthy. Likely improver with strong prospects. BEL'S BANNER (2) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished second at this track two starts back then landed the prize by 1.3 lengths last time out over 6f at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
