Cheeky Charlotte has winning form at Carnarvon over this 1000m trip (1 from 6 starts) and is resuming today with a solid first-up record of 2 placings from 6 attempts, suggesting it handles the fresh assignment. The Jacquelyn Scott and Jordan Turner combination has struck 57% above expectation across their last 100 rides, adding genuine edge to the stable's planning here. Barrier 1 gives the horse every chance to land a soft run in running. The main reservation is the move up in class coupled with patchy recent form and ordinary recent speed, so watch whether the horse can find another gear against the upgraded opposition.

Dragonflies draws a soft run from barrier 2 but faces real headwinds on the form front: recent speed is a concern, recent form is a concern, and the class level raises questions about whether this horse can compete at today's assignment. The main thing to watch is the resumption angle - Dragonflies has yet to win first-up from 8 attempts and usually needs a run to find peak fitness.

Addictive Dream is resuming after a break with a barrier 3 draw that should allow a soft run, and its record of 1 win from 4 first-up appearances suggests it typically races well fresh. The trainer is in good current form, which supports the case for a positive return. The main watch is a class rise in this assignment, which sits against the positive freshness and draw factors.

Intoxicating resumes today with a mixed first-up record (0 from 3) but has struck once into the prep (1 from 3 second-up), so early-race caution is warranted. The key positive is the Forrester/Webster combination, which has struck 269% above expectation over the last 100 rides, lending credibility to the stable's confidence here. Recent form and recent speed are flagged as concerns, and the class move raises questions about whether the horse can step up. Watch the opening performance closely, as resumption form is the main thing to settle before committing.

She Is All Magic resumes today with a decent first-up record of 3 from 6 and a pattern of running well fresh, which supports the timing here. The Jacquelyn Scott and Natika Riordan combination has struck at 125% above expectation across their last 100 rides together, giving confidence in the stable and riding setup. However, recent form reads as a concern, the class move raises questions, and recent speed figures lack standout credentials, so watch closely whether those first-up credentials and the Scott/Riordan edge can overcome the form and class headwinds.
