GENERAL BELLAMY finished far from disgraced when fourth in a stronger event over a similar trip here earlier this month and may prove the answer if running to that level here.

CACTUS JACK has proven consistency personified in recent outings, finishing no worse than fourth on his last five appearances, and a reproduction of his latest second over track and trip earlier this month could suffice.

KULP finished a fair sixth in a stronger event on debut over five furlongs here in October and any normal amount of improvement could see him shed the maiden tag.

ROLLING PALISADES has proven versatile with regards distance and he lost nothing in defeat when finishing fourth over this trip at Parx last month. This appears to represent a slightly easier assignment and he can prove too strong for Messy Baker and Brave Deacon.

MARC WELLS had Barefootin' Bay behind in third when runner-up over an extended five furlongs here earlier this month and he looks to have been found the ideal opportunity to shed the maiden tag. Jozani R V F has finished runner-up on his last two starts and may prove the biggest danger.

Senor Ricci has to be feared with his sights lowered while Sailin Street drops significantly in grade after over a year off the track and any market support would be interesting. However, GOLDMINE KAZ looks open to further improvement given his lightly-raced profile and he lost nothing in defeat when third over six furlongs here last month.

TRIBAL PRINCESS was first past the post in a similar event four starts back before being disqualified so clearly has the ability to play a part in an event like this and she may prove the answer to a competitive event. Mouse Cat has reached the frame on her last two starts and ought to be thereabouts with Jennyanyspot completing the shortlist.
