Held when seventh of eight in July in a maiden plate; has arguably shown improved form the last twice but winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 22; record suggests she is usually one to take on for win purposes so has questions to answer.

From a respected trainer; not beaten too far (just under 2l) in a maiden plate at Turffontein last month upped to 1m; has to be considered.

Knocking on the door of late and has kicked on in her last couple of races; respectable effort to finish second 26 days ago in a maiden plate; Craig Zackey a noteworthy booking; looks likely to go well.

Shown recent signs of improvement and running well at present; finishing runner-up was a good effort last month at Turffontein in a maiden plate; assuming she steps up from most recent effort then has a decent shout.

Verdict
PANDORA FORT looks set for a big run. Polly Plummer competes off the back of some good runs, and Tu Giusto looks a decent option.
