Not beaten too far when fourth here two weeks ago in a handicap; facing a testing assignment and unlikely to trouble the principals.

Finished seventh, beaten 8l, over 7f here (handicap) last Thursday; this line-up contains some strong opposition so others more appealing.

Won by 2½l in a maiden plate 49 days ago when opening her account at the third time of asking upped to 7½f; booking of G Lerena takes the eye.

Not fancied in the betting (25-1) when a narrow winner here over 1m (maiden plate) 14 days ago; has to be feared.

| 31 Mar 26 | Vaa Vaal | 6f | Md | 9-6 | 9/11 | Viking Lass (14L) | 125/1 | - | 4 |
Held in fifth a week ago in a handicap; looks well treated on the pick of her form but not seen the winners' enclosure for a while now (last win in 2024); others more likely as now looks to be past her prime.

Held in sixth four weeks ago in a handicap; rates a likely contender as has bits and pieces of decent form and handicapper has cut her some slack.

Has struggled to factor since winning a Class 5 at Greyville last September; finished out the back in a handicap dropped down to 1m last month; others appeal more as this could be a hot race.

Verdict
Flying World needs to be considered while Future Red is on the shortlist. But XTATIC is strongly fancied to prevail. She has won here once before.
