2 Maroon did everything right in her debut. She showed good perception so her debut behind the car should be no problem and she should be seen with a good chance of taking the second straight.

12 Luck Is For Losers does well most of the time and despite the starting position she should be seen as having a chance.

4 Olara Boko is consistent and confident, but still without a win after eight heat. Way ahead if she gets her trip from behind.

6 Kenya Sotto has not been able to do it under his new management but Has good speed to surprise.

6 Gladiator S was pushing hard last time and lapped in a lively style in 1:12.6 but fell silent in the home stretch. He is faces good conditions in the lane ladder, can open fast and has previously shown that he enjoys frequent starts.

12 Mellby Mammon impressed in three straight wins for Timo Nurmos last year. Seasonal debut and tough conditions, but we can expect it to be a tight race in the first start of the year.

2 Twigs Like U made a strong recovery last time out and should be close to form with two run under his belt .

9 Naledi B has good speed for the race but is looking for the right form.

4 Just Time took his first win in the last race. Won from the outside of the leader and gave a good performance.

2 Kings Dust was second behind Just Time last time after an inside trip. Got the chance very late and is looking for revenge here. Contender.

11 Ivy League comes from a good second place but was clearly defeated by Influencer. Should be considered early on .

6 Kuarato Heot has only one win in 23 starts but is quite consistent and good. Could surprise.
