Undefeated from her only start, Azure Angel shows immense promise and comes from the astute Brad Widdup stable with Tyler Schiller aboard. Despite the step up, her 100% win rate suggests she has the class to compete strongly here.
With a recent win and a solid 33% win rate from limited starts, Lightning Glory is well-placed from barrier 1 with Nick Heywood. The Nathan Doyle stable often presents horses ready to perform, making this a genuine chance.
Coming from the Kris Lees stable with Dylan Gibbons, Issy's Star has a decent place record and a recent second-place finish, suggesting good form. The wider barrier is a slight concern, but the overall profile is competitive.
A recent winner, Bondasong has shown ability but her form since has been less convincing. Barrier 2 is a plus, but the lack of a prominent jockey or trainer listed makes it harder to assess her consistency against stronger rivals.
While having a recent win, Greyt Thinker's overall form string is inconsistent with many unplaced runs. The higher number of career starts without significant improvement suggests this horse might struggle to contend for the win in this field.
With a very low win percentage from 14 starts and a wide barrier, Nay Pee Cee faces a significant challenge in this race. Recent form is unconvincing, suggesting this horse is likely to be a rank outsider.
