Won at A2 grade last time out with a 94-rated performance — her best of the season — and has placed second in three runs before that, all at A3 grade. The form is building beautifully, peaking at exactly the right time. Trap 3 is the second-best structural draw at this distance with over 26% of winners, and trainer Paul Duffy sends her here with a 50% win rate — a deliberate placement that should not be ignored. She's improving, she's drawn well, and the trainer clearly has her in a good place.
Good structural draw and recent A1 winning form. The main threat to the selection.
Speed leader and reliable placer but drawn in a structural trap. Hard to win from trap 1 at this trip here.
Structural penalty from trap 4 and insufficient form to assess ability. Cannot recommend.
Strong recent form but drawn in the only trap at this distance and grade with zero wins recorded. Cannot back regardless of ability.
Best structural draw but recent form is poor. The draw advantage is real but the form has to show up.
Structural draw is the dominant factor at this distance and grade. T5 has zero wins, T1 and T4 at 10%. T6 leads at 31.6%, T3 at 26.3%, T2 at 25%. Trainer Paul Duffy has a 50% win rate in the small sample for the pick.
