Northern European

J: C Murray

T: X/C Spies

Out of the frame when eighth a week ago upped to 1m in a maiden plate; might have a say given several of her rivals have questions to answer and she has shown signs of promise in the past.

Grains Of Paradise

Out of the frame when sixth in a maiden plate upped to 1m behind Northern European, last month; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role.

Delicious Dish

La Parisienne

J: J Gates

T: S J Gray

Was seventh of 11, beaten 12l, last month in a maiden plate; this now her fifth attempt to get off the mark; stable is ticking along nicely; others more appealing.

Alittlebitoflove

J: K Matsunyane

T: S G Tarry

Completely tailed off on her debut (at Vaal over 6f) at 20-1 in March; from a powerful yard; has had some time off; can't be ruled out.

Go For Broke ¹

J: G Lerena

T: M N Houdalakis

Ahead of Northern European and Night Shuffle when second (beaten three-quarters of a length) over 6f at Turffontein (maiden plate) last month; should figure as appeals from a breeding angle.

Northern European is interesting, and Go For Broke needs to be taken seriously. However, JESSICA RABBIT gets the vote. She can be expected to improve from her debut effort.
