Consistent performer; good effort when 1l runner-up last month upped to 1m in a maiden plate; a major contender as recent display was promising.

One Dawn silk
One Dawn
J: K De Melo
T: D Kannemeyer
Produced an encouraging effort (third of 13, beaten 1l) over 6f here (maiden plate) last month with two of these rivals behind; pedigree offers room to progress and easy to see her making an impression.

Verdict

Jane Austen should be looked at while One Dawn rates a serious danger to the tip. But SPURIOUS is top of the list. She comes here off the back of a fair effort last time and has been running consistently well.
