Historically they have all fared extremely poorly. For this reason I would rule themn all out regardless of how good they are.
Look at Black Caviar when she went to the UK. Her only start was way below her usual performance. It gives me cause for concern that they are feeling the effects of travel and that is why they have been saved for just one big race.
