Alfa Moonstone (3/1), Sankari (10/3), Whogoesthere (9/2), Lady Showcasing (13/2), I'm Spartacus (8/1), Indication Spirit (17/2), Dear Mary (12/1), Dc Flyer (50/1)

Those with experience don't set the bar very high, so it might be worth taking a chance on INDICATION SPIRIT to make a successful start given that she represents shrewd connections. I'm Spartacus is another notable newcomer and Sankari is likely to be involved.
