No. 3 Pegasus in Flight (6-1) easily defeated Rolls Royce Joyce from the inside post last time. Kathleen Demasi re-claimed her that day, and she might be able to repeat at a hint of a price. 

No. 6 Jezebel Jade (3-1) ran off the screen in a fast local score at this distance on Jan. 16, and the runner-up was a next-out winner. The versatile filly is capable of firing a fresh shot, and she drilled a local half-mile bullet for this on March 15. 

No. 4 Rolls Royce Joyce (5-1) is usually in the mix for the productive Frankie Pennington and Scott Lake team. The early-pressing mare enjoys this distance. 

No. 2 Tappin Josie (7-2) won her last three starts, including a stakes score at this course and distance on March 6. The versatile filly clearly has a nose for the wire and must be respected in her current form. 

No. 8 Chelsea Wall (8-1) exits a local claiming route win and Jamie Ness has her now. She has struck at this distance before and should make her presence felt in the lane. 

No. 1 Mia Tosca (6-1) is a competent sprinter making her first start since May 2022. She has fine connections in her corner but might need the outing.
