Genuine tempo with Jenni The Cat, Daytona Diva and Missy Aggravation up front. DAYTONA DIVA (4) steps up from a mile for the first time, and she may provide the sternest competition. Has been heavily supported her last three, including in the 1000 Guineas last time. She has scope for further improvement. AURORA RISE (7) recorded her Maiden win last start over 1755m at Geelong. Is lightly raced and has plenty of upside. This is obviously tougher but she's in good hands and John Allen will give her every chance from the handy barrier. MISSY AGGRAVATION (8) pushed forward and went on to record a determined Maiden win over 1525m at Geelong. Tougher for her as well but she will keep improving and the inside barrier benefits. FIERCE 'N FABULOUS (6) continues to race well and while a niggle at the trip, has to be kept safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Daytona Diva.
