Outgunned at the finish when 3rd beaten by 3/4L last time at Delta Downs and promising career start. Has plenty of early speed. Showing positive results this campaign. Good potential.

Back from a break. Was agonizingly close last start at Delta Downs but competing at a higher class. Can show up in this at odds.

Uncompetitive when 8th last start at Delta Downs and coming back in distance. Does take a while to get into stride. Matched against tougher rivals. Considering others.

First up from a spell. Underwhelming when 6th last run at Delta Downs but up against a less competitive field. Might be ridden for luck. Will be down in distance. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Was much too speedy in front when winning by a nose last start at Delta Downs but challenged by a tougher grade. Likely to be well placed early. Forward showing expected.
