Royalcorrespondent (11/4), Zenato (4/1), Harry The Rogue (6/1), Dynamite Defense (6/1), Alto Sax (13/2), She's Smart (10/1), Chinois (10/1), Nosey Anna (14/1), Butterfly Bush (20/1), Laser Sharp (33/1), Luxurious Princess (33/1), Sister Mila (66/1), Veil Dance (80/1), Clove Rock (100/1), Magic Defense (125/1)

ROYALCORRESPONDENT was fourth in a deeper-looking contest than this starting out for a new yard at Gowran 12 days ago and he makes as much appeal as any of these. Alto Sax, a former stablemate of the selection, and Zenato are a couple of possible threats.
