G1 – 1600m – Turf
| 1 | Desert Lightning | Impressive in consecutive wins at this distance; latest beating odds-on favourite Legarto on 27 January. Has pace, drawn one. |
| 2 | Puntura | Seeks fourth straight win after G1 Thorndon Mile (1600m) success on 20 January. Won trial 13 February. Can be ridden forward or back. |
| 3 | Aegon | Wide and over-raced when failed in G1 Zabeel Classic (2050m) on 26 December after fast finishing 1.4L 4th to Desert Lightning in G1 TAB Classic at this distance on 9 December. |
| 4 | Callsign Mav | Typically honest on-pace effort when 2L 3rd to Bonny Lass in G1 BCD Group Sprint (1400m) on 10 February and that race always good guide to this. |
| 5 | Ladies Man | G1 Livamol Classic winner at 2040m last year. Made late ground when placed at 1400m on heavy ground at first run this year. |
| 6 | El Vencedor | Solid on-pace effort when 1.3L 2nd to Puntura in G1 Thorndon Mile on 20 January. Likes soft ground. |
| 7 | Chase | Freshened up and back in trip after disappointing 9th in G3 Trentham Stakes (2100m) on 13 January. Likes soft ground. |
| 8 | La Crique | Ran on well when 2.1L 4th to Belclare in G2 Westbury Classic (1400m) on 27 January at first run this year. Second this race last year. |
| 9 | Belclare | Sound on-pace win in the G2 Westbury Classic (1400m) on 27 January. Consistent and extra 200m no issue. |
| 10 | Lady Telena | Good 3rd to rivals Puntura and El Vencedor in G1 Thorndon Mile before excusable run in G1 Herbie Dyke Stakes at 2000m. |
