Much of it depends on how you have appeared up until this point. In other words, are you well liked on the job? Respected? Is your work considered top notch? Does your personality mesh well with your co-workers.
The reality is that working at a firm is more often a hindrance to being promoted than an advantage. People tend to stick you in a certain pigeon hole and assume that they know your talents and strengths when in reality they know only what they see of you as it relates to your current position.
Make a conscious effort to enhance your appearance physically - suits, statement jewelry, appropriate accessories, etc. Make an appointment with your HR folks to discuss your interest in this position. Update your resume, so you are prepared to show them your experience beyond your current position.
Good luck! You have nothing to lose by trying for it.
