T: M Pandaram
Out of the frame (beaten 3½l in fourth) in March (Vaal) upped to 1m2f in a maiden plate; has arguably shown improved form the last twice; makes limited appeal and stall 11 could be problematic.

Beaten 13l in ninth last month in a maiden plate; from respected yard and winless in five starts but has shown promise with second her top showing; should not be far away from ground-saving starting berth and has been on the scene in the recent past.

Finished last and beaten 17l first time out in course maiden juvenile plate over 6f when some way behind the seventh, Secret Life, at 14-1 last month; may well improve; should be better for that run.

Verdict

Tea For Three is capable of better but DESTINY's DREAM has an obvious shout. Purple Rain is an interesting contender with an ideal draw, and Vyfster has to be seriously considered.
