The contenders
Oppenheimer KTB Fit 62/100
Modest performer who has struggled to make an impact in five starts to date. He steps up to 7f for the first time today after two previous runs at the trip without success and the small sample makes going preferences hard to pin down. Trainer holds a solid 11% strike rate here from 55 runs while Colin Keane posts a 16% record from 640 rides at the track.
Kingcharles KTB Fit 62/100
Modest performer who has shown very little in three starts to date, finishing eighth on his only visit here. Drops back from 1m to a trip he has never tried, which asks a fresh question of him. Trainer has a solid 11% strike-rate at Gowran from 55 runs while jockey Ben Coen posts a 14% record from 335 rides at the track.
Miss Ivor KTB Fit 60/100
Limited filly who has shown very little in five runs and was beaten a long way on her last two starts. Dropping back from 1m4f to 7f asks a fresh question while the wide draw in stall 14 is no help. Trainer and jockey both have modest records at Gowran but nothing in the form suggests she can suddenly improve.
Gilts KTB Fit 53/100
Limited performer who showed improved form to win over this trip at this track last time. That success gives a clear positive on both course and distance but the yard's modest strike rate here and the jockey's poor record add negatives. Lightly raced with only four runs total so the going remains an unknown.
Sunrise Angel KTB Fit 52/100
Limited performer who has shown little spark in three runs this season and looks up against it from a wide draw. Drops back to 7f having been placed at the trip earlier in his career though he is unproven on good to firm ground. Trainer records a 9% strike rate at Gowran Park from 267 runs.
