Hardly a model of consistency; comfortably beaten into eighth over 1m½f at Vaal (maiden plate) 21 days ago; could be interesting as she finished third two months ago and draw should be beneficial.

Seems to be going the right way; solid effort here over 7f (maiden plate) three weeks ago on debut for this trainer; should figure.

Yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at 16; came home fourth, beaten 11l, two weeks ago in a maiden plate; may have to settle for supporting role.

Finished just behind Flightlight when tenth with blinkers tried in January at Vaal in a maiden plate; this now her sixth attempt to get off the mark; not hard to turn elsewhere.

Split Mattiazo and Flightlight two weeks ago when beaten 8l in a maiden plate; previous run was disappointing, but finished second two starts back; is a very interesting runner.

Finished ahead of two of these rivals two weeks ago when beaten 8l (fourth of nine) in a maiden plate; ground-saving trip a possibility from her draw so likely to be thereabouts.

Verdict
Intro is an interesting contender with an ideal draw, and Mattiazo and Flightlight are capable but unpredictable. However, AURORA GREEN is a strong pick. She is fancied to reverse the placings with Mattiazo from their last meeting.
