Returns from a four-month break after finishing eighth on debut in a Mdn at Sale, beaten six and a half lengths on heavy ground when at long odds. She did make some late ground from well back, but was never a serious factor. Debut was plain at Sale, so improvement is required to trouble these.

Makes her debut after three Flemington trials, the latest a fourth over 800m last month. Simon Zahra has had debut winners from a modest sample, and the family has produced city winner Le Ferrari, but there is no race form to properly anchor her against several with stronger exposed or trial profiles. Hard to rate above the main hopes without race experience.

Debuts for Chris Waller as a NZ$180,000 purchase from Karaka, with four Flemington trials leading in. The pedigree has substance through Cellarmaster, a G3 winner and G2 placegetter, and the stable profile gives her respect. Need a strong push.

Returns from a five-month break after finishing fourth at Cranbourne, beaten four lengths after pressing forward and weakening late. The run prior was a much sharper third at Geelong, beaten a neck at big odds in a Mdn, and she has since had two trials, latest a third at Mornington. Should be ready to run well fresh.

Starts her career with a Pakenham trial win behind her, which is the right sort of lead-in for a debutante in a maiden with mixed exposed form. The Ben, Will & JD Hayes stable has a sound debut record, and the family includes winners around 1100m to 1200m. Brings one of the better first-starter profiles and can run very well.

Worked into third at Avoca last start, but was still beaten just over seven lengths in country grade after being hampered mid-race. Her debut at Pakenham Synthetic was only fair when sixth, beaten four and a half lengths. Place hope.

Finished last at Geelong first-up, beaten over 12 lengths in a Mdn after racing three-wide without cover throughout. That gives her some excuse, but she was unwanted in the market and also well held on debut in Open grade at Cranbourne. Blinkers go on and barrier four helps but needs to lift.

Makes her debut from barrier one after four trials, most recently a fifth at Camperdown over 1000m. There is not a great deal in the trial record to push her ahead of the better-credentialed first starters, and the stable's small debut sample is limited. Likely to require the race experience.

Produced the best exposed form in the race when second at Kyneton first-up, beaten a length after racing wide without cover and still giving a strong sight as the short odds-on favourite. She was also third on debut at Bendigo, beaten just under two lengths as a well-supported favourite. Second-up, she looks the one to beat for strong connections.

Returns from a four-month break after a difficult first campaign in stronger Caulfield races. She was last in a F Open before the spell, beaten over 12 lengths at long odds, though stewards noted she was slow away and held up near the 100m. The prior form is still modest, so she has to lift.

Returns after five weeks since a debut fifth at Ballarat, where she tracked the lead but finished beaten just over six lengths as an outside chance in betting. Blinkers go on and a close trial helps but draw is tricky.

Debuts as a NZ$80,000 Karaka purchase and a full sister to G1 winner Pasadena Girl, so the pedigree clearly gives her appeal. Her three Pakenham trials have been steady rather than flashy, with a fifth in the latest, and the stable's debut strike rate is modest. Trials are steady but respecting key jockey booking.

Begins her career after three trials, the latest an eighth at Mornington over 900m. She is a $25,000 yearling purchase from a family that has produced debut performers, including Sweet Jazz and Dane On Tour, but the immediate trial evidence is only moderate. Looks one for later rather than a strong winning hope.

Was fourth on debut at Kilmore, beaten five and a half lengths after tracking the speed and failing to finish off. She had won an earlier Sandown-Hillside trial, and first-time blinkers could sharpen her second-up, while the Laurie stable has strong figures with this sire. Has some upside, but the main hopes bring stronger form.
