The Baggy Green has won her past two starts and is on the quick back-up after an impressive win at Wagga on Tuesday night.
The five-year-old mare also finished third behind cup favourite — Hollywood Sign — in the Junee Cup late last month in another good form pointer to her chances tonight.
“I rate her chances pretty highly and I think she is racing as well as she ever has,” Maguire said.
“She has pulled up a treat since winning on Tuesday night and I have no hesitation sending her around again.
“Yes, it is a stronger field than she has been up against lately but she deserves her spot in the race.”
Maguire said drawing barrier two was ideal.
“It gives me plenty of options from the start,” he said.
“I can come out of the gate humming and lead or if something wants to pressure us we can let them go by and take a sit.”
