Out of the frame when eighth 14 days ago in a maiden plate; should get involved with the possibility of a ground-saving trip from her draw and she ran well three runs back.

El Cohete

J: K De Melo

T: G W Ennion

Finished last of seven two weeks ago in a stakes race; not yet off the mark in seven attempts although has finished second; she's worth a go if replicating most recent run and draw should be beneficial.

Lana's Gal is capable of running well, and Sicily is one to be interested in. However, EL COHETE is a firm choice. She comes here off the back of a fair effort last time.
