Was a close second at Greyville last month in a conditional maiden; stepped up on her last two starts; very interesting if building on last performance.

A disappointing sixth when favourite over 1m1f at Greyville (maiden plate) 30 days ago; appears to be on the upgrade judged on two most recent runs; in first-time blinkers; looks likely to be involved.

Verdict

ZENA ROSE is top of the list. She is taken to come out on top off the back of her latest effort. Our Lady Fate is capable of getting involved while Who Blinked could give the main tip a headache, and Run Forest Run is one of the more interesting newcomers.
