Madeira Sunrise the only stakes-winner engaged in the fillies division, although Blanc de Blanc and Fire Lane have been very honest in stakes races, but it does open the door for an up and comer and the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott trained Pierro filly Tu Qui Santuzza might be ready to take the quantum leap.

Unraced I Am Invincible filly Tiz Invincible has shown promise at the trials and is from a half-sister to Anamoe.
