Tommy Berry will be on board for a third time and she is listed as a short priced favourite off the back of her encouraging last start win.

Winx went to the Flight Stakes at her fifth race start and finished second to First Seal.

The Joe Pride trained mare City of Lights, another half-sister to Winx by Japanese sire sensation Deep Impact, is also back in work with Joe Pride and trialled well at Randwick on Monday.

She has won four of eight starts and has been entered for the Group I ATC Epsom Handicap.
