Sweet Paree has a solid career record with 3 wins and 4 places from 26 starts, and crucially, has drawn an ideal barrier in 2. This inside gate will allow her to save ground and position well, making her a strong each-way contender with a good chance to win.
Shadow Black has a strong win percentage (17%) from limited starts, indicating good potential. Barrier 11 is a slight challenge, but Liam Riordan is a capable jockey. If he can overcome the draw, his win rate suggests he's a serious threat and could be a value bet.
Legendary Diva has a solid win and place record, with 3 wins from 19 starts and a 26% place rate. Despite a slightly wide barrier (14), Jackie Beriman is a capable jockey who can navigate the challenge. If she can overcome the draw, her form suggests she's a strong contender.
Crepescule has a decent win and place record, with 2 wins from 14 starts and a 29% place rate. Barrier 10 is a slight concern but manageable, and if she gets a good run, she has the form to be a strong contender in this class, especially with a solid jockey.
Vinnie's Turn is lightly raced with a win from only 7 starts and benefits from a favourable inside draw in barrier 4. If he has matured and improved, this could be a good opportunity for him to step up, especially with a potentially lighter weight and a good jockey aboard.
Zamora has a win from 10 starts and a favourable inside barrier (5), which could be a significant advantage. While her place percentage is low, the good draw might allow her to settle well and produce a strong finish, making her a potential upset or each-way chance.
Runway Ruler has a fair win and place record, but barrier 16 is a major disadvantage over this sprint distance. While the trainer can occasionally produce a winner, overcoming such a wide draw will require a phenomenal effort and a lot of luck.
