IN A TIZZY looked sharp winning on debut and has the upside to take another step. BEFUDDLE brings a strong form reference and can make them work again. EFFERATO returns with trial fitness after a Hong Kong win, making him an intriguing chance. KIPPIS is better placed back in grade and can bounce back.

A close Bendigo second gives her place prospects if she holds that form.

Barrier 9 · L Nolen · 60kg · Midfield
Has been closing off well, but needs luck from back in the field.

Her previous first-up effort was encouraging, but this trip is a concern.

A modest strike-rate and an unconvincing latest run make her hard to trust.
