MAG DILLANE was well supported and upped her game to open her account over hurdles in a maiden here last time so, with her mark only marginally altered since, she's worth a chance to go in again. Zeeband is an obvious danger and Surf Club will be a major player if he can get close to his bumper form on handicap debut.
