Both Lady Crossmar and Byron's Gold attempted to make all at this track last month. But neither could hang on for victory and with Shushu Sugartown also racing prominently on her recent debut here, there should be no lack of pace. That could play into the hands of one of the newcomers with Mirror expected to go well, but GARRAUN just preferred. The latter is a half-sister to dual winner Fort Bastion and may well be up to landing this on her debut.
