Comment
Broomfield Aderra won last time out and has two wins in her last five starts, with a third and a fifth in between, and she has run over today's trip and going before. A 199-day absence is the one question, but she is top of our ratings at 120 and looks the one to beat.

Comment
Best Women won last time out and was second two starts back, but she returns after 161 days off and carries 155 lb off an official 107. Has run on today's going, yet our figures rank her last of eight, so she's hard to fancy.

Comment
Pulled up last time out and absent for 177 days, Princess Keri is hard to fancy, though she was second two starts back and did score the run before that, and she has run over today's trip and going. Carrying 152 lb off 104, she looks vulnerable, with our rating of 101 ranking her seventh of eight.
