Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a solid tempo. The babies kick us off. PIXIE LANE (4) just ran into one better over this track and trip on debut and will have derived a bunch of benefit from that day at the races. Hoop Du Plessis sticks in the saddle and maps nicely for this from gate three. Looks the one they all have to run down. MAGANISTA (7) resumes here but the form she showed in her first preparation was good enough for a race of this calibre. Can run a big race while fresh. POWERFILLY (5) is facing the starter for the first time but showed ability in her only metro trial. Keep very safe. FORMAL AFFAIR (3) is another on debut and any market confidence must be noted. STORM PETAL (6) next in line out of the Robl barn. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pixie Lane to shed the maiden tag.
