3

Azkadellia

Finished strongly when 0.5 lengths 2nd to Peeping in G1 Coolmore Classic (1500m) at Rosehill on 12 March before sound effort when 2.2 lengths 3rd to the champion mare Winx in G1 Doncaster Mile at Randwick last Saturday.

Impressive all the way winner when scored by 2.75 lengths from Noble Protector in G2 Sunline Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley on 24 March. Has good record 1600m on dry tracks.

5

Noble Protector

Good mare who ran third in this race last year. Ran on well when 2.75 lengths 2nd to Miss Rose De Lago in G2 Sunline Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley on 24 March. That was second run this year, after losing rider first-up. Fitter.

6

Zanbagh

Peaked at third run this campaign when strong half length winner from Supara in G2 Emancipation Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill on 26 March. Capable all conditions.

7

Casino Dancer

Just fair when 3.8 lengths 9th to Zanbagh in G2 Emancipation Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill on 26 March but that was only second run this year and likely to be fitter.

8

Artistry

Up in class but good strike rate of 6 wins from 12 starts. Ran on well when head winner from Nancy in the G3 Newmarket Handicap (1350m) at Rosehill on 19 March. Longer trip no issue.

9

Front-runner racing very well. Won the G3 Epona Stakes (1900m) by a head from Heavens Above before 6.3 lengths 4th to Winx in G1 Doncaster Mile at Randwick last Saturday.

Better effort last start when closing 1.7 lengths 5th to Zanbagh in G2 Emancipation Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill on 26 March.

12

Heavens Above

Won the G3 Aspiration Stakes at this course and distance before head 2nd to Vergara in the G3 Epona Stakes (1900m) at Rosehill on 19 March. Rarely runs a bad race.

13

Lady Le Fay

Made late ground without much luck when 2.1 lengths to Zanbagh in G2 Emancipation Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill on 26 March. Fitter for that run. Has good record 1600m and on rain affected tracks.

14

Badawiya

Impressive first-up G2 winner at 1400m at Flemington before on pace 0.7 lengths 4th to Zanbagh in G2 Emancipation Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill on 26 March. Better for that run, her first experience right handed.

15

Pasadena Girl

Made some late ground when 3.3 lengths 8th to Zanbagh in G2 Emancipation Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill on 26 March. One win at this distance was at this track on soft ground.

16

Risque

Below best when 3.7 lengths 8th to Single Gaze in G1 Vinery Stud Stakes (2000m) at Rosehill on 26 March. Back to 1600m suits as she’s won two of three at the distance.
