Produced a good effort to finish second in a maiden plate in August; signs of improvement on last two runs; returns from an absence here; hard to ignore if replicating most recent run.

Sibling of Catch That Melody (6f winner); early foal; pedigree suggests she may improve with time; cannot be ignored.

Verdict

This is a tight race on the figures but preference is for VINDOLANDA. Shiraz Glow looks the next best, and Rendevous In Rio is capable of running well.
