Smokin Aces (9/4), Ophelia Hall (5/2), Glenageary (3/1), Silk's Legacy (17/2), Choir Girl (12/1), Why Wait (12/1), Way To Go Annie (25/1), Destinedforhistory (25/1), Burleigh Beach (125/1)

Verdict

This may go the way of a newcomer from a top yard, with GLENAGEARY narrowly preferred to stablemate Smokin Aces. Silk's Legacy also needs a close look, while Destinedforhistory is easily the pick of those with experience.
