Shrimpton, from the elite Price & Kent Jnr stable, had a solid debut run and is expected to improve significantly here. With a good barrier and a top stable, she's primed to be a major player and is a strong contender for the win.

Dun Gracefully stands out with the best place record in the field, hitting the board in two of three starts. Drawing favourably in barrier 3 and having a trainer with a good strike rate in maidens, this filly looks primed to break her duck here.

Lillard has shown some glimpses of staying ability, and the rise in distance here looks to be exactly what she needs. With a strong jockey aboard and a trainer who excels with stayers, she appears to be the most promising candidate to break her maiden. Her recent form is better than it looks on paper, indicating she's ready for this challenge.

Sara's Rocket has a strong win and place record from limited starts, indicating significant upside. The inside barrier is a huge advantage, and with Craig Newitt aboard, this horse looks perfectly placed to perform. This is my top pick for the race.

Magnardo boasts an exceptional career win rate of 45% and a place rate of 55% from 20 starts, indicating a horse with a strong will to win. Despite the lack of specific form, these career stats make him a standout in this field, and the inside barrier is a bonus for a horse that knows how to find the line.

Semelle Rouge looks to be a promising type, coming off a strong maiden win and stepping into a very winnable BM56. The inside barrier is a massive advantage over this short course, and with a top stable and jockey aboard, she rates as the clear top pick. This horse has the upside to progress through the grades.

This horse boasts an impressive win rate from very few starts, indicating significant upside. Despite the wide barrier, the class drop and strong jockey engagement make it a standout contender in this field. If it handles the distance, it should be very hard to beat.
