Navigatrix is the likely leader at a slick tempo. GRANDE HAWAII (5) is a handy type who resumes after a break of nine weeks. Only appeared once last prep when she finished 13th over 1200m in Group 2 grade at Greyville, beaten 30 lengths. Reunites with Keagan De Melo who has a win when partnering. Promising filly who is hard to beat this level. NAVIGATRIX (6) was a most impressive winner on debut over 1200m at Vaal, putting 2.5 lengths on her nearest rival. Down in the weights this time. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Likely to feature. SOCIAL GRACES (7) has been in great form with two placings in succession, most recently when beaten 1.5 lengths into third over 1200m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MATCHA MINT (1) is back from a year spell and she does run well first-up, including a win over 1600m at this track at the start of last prep. One of the genuine hopes in the race.
