Turnbull’s quartet of Tact Rousey, Miss Vera Mac, Quaint Glen and Neon Sky all get front row starts for the feature event.
The trainer from The Lagoon said it’s hard to pick a favourite out of the in-form group.
In all their heats I couldn’t fault any of them.

“They’re all really nice mares,” she said.
“All their work has been different, and they’ve all got different lines, being mares, and in all their heats I couldn’t fault any of them.”
Tact Rousey made a big impression in her Australian debut, winning her heat by over 10 metres in a 1:55.3 mile rate.
The Art Major mare gets the inside start for Saturday’s feature and will be driven by Luke McCarthy.
Turnbull herself will have the drive on Miss Vera Mac, from gate two.
“She hasn’t done too much in her career but since I’ve had her she’s done alright,” she said of the McArdle mare.
“She’s very casual and an easy mare to deal with.”
Brendan Barnes (Quaint Glen, gate three) and Amy Rees (Neon Sky, gate eight) have the drives on Turnbull’s remaining runners.
