Close up behind Radio Star when fifth in a conditions plate 40 days ago; resume shows that she is a proven winner (seeking a fourth career win); strong claims given she won a handicap two runs back.

Useful at this level and normally pretty consistent; respectable effort when fourth back down to 6f on his first start for this trainer three weeks ago in a handicap; can't be ruled out as recent display was promising and good draw could make things easier.

Could not manage better than sixth in the Champion Stakes (Greyville) upped to 1m three months ago; might find this company a little easier but makes little appeal.

Not far behind Tina Lovelace when sixth two weeks ago in a graduation plate; still looking to open his account after five runs; he can be taken on.

Not beaten too far when fourth of seven 12 days ago in a graduation plate; hails from a good trainer but poor strike-rate; facing a testing assignment and others make more appeal.

Verdict
PRETTY PERSUASIVE is strongly fancied to come out on top. She is bidding for her fourth course success and can reverse last time's placings with Radio Star. Brave Waam rates a big danger while Legend Of Arthur is one to consider, and Gallic Victor has some good efforts on the ledger.
Pretty Persuasive
