Manic Light
Barrier 9 · 137kg · Form:
MEDIUM RISK
CAREER30:3-7
Jockey:Violet Soulsby
Trainer:Tanya Parry

Manic Light has a decent career place percentage, indicating reliability, but the wide barrier 9 is a concern over 1207m. If the jockey can navigate a good run, this horse has the class to be in the finish, but it will require a strong ride.

Barrier 1 · 132kg · Form:
MEDIUM RISK
CAREER19:3-2
Jockey:Maddie Mankelow
Trainer:Toni Schofield

All Too Lucky draws the coveted rail position in barrier 1, which is a massive plus for this distance. While career place percentage is modest, the inside run could provide a significant boost, making this horse a potential improver in this field.

CAREER35:3-7
Jockey:John Rudd
Trainer:Henry Forster

Salt Lake Betty has the highest prizemoney and a reasonable place percentage, but her career win rate is low for the number of starts. While she has shown ability, consistency at winning has been an issue, making her an each-way prospect at best.

Lasting Promise has a very low career place percentage despite a decent number of wins, suggesting inconsistency. The wide barrier 8 will make it challenging, and while capable on her day, she's a risky proposition in this competitive field.
