Verdict

Tricky finish. LOUD CHARLIE (3) resumes with a nice profile having started at $2.70 here before a spell in a very strong 3yo BM66 behind Savitri who was competitive in a G1 thereafter. 6f here fresh is the query but he can be sharp enough and Zahra on is a good lead. ELECTRIC ELVIS (2) was dusted off at $1.40 at Bendigo last time, perhaps not seeing out a strong 7f there. All his recent form is on heavy so back to dry here is a query but he's flying and back to 6f suits. LONTRICE (8) resumes. He's a lightly raced type who measured up well to a BM72 before a spell and warrants respect. ATTACHMENTS (7) resumes. She started $1.60 in a decent race before a break but had excuses. Wary of any support fresh. THE VOLTA (11) resumes, she'll get back from the gate but has plenty of ability and should be charging home.
