Verdict

DONE LEAVY (10) goes on top in the last. She's racing well this time in, a good maiden winner as favourite two back before closing off strongly up in grade at Ballarat to grab fourth. Stays at 5f again but finds a suitable race and should be very hard to hold out. STEAMY MIST (8) struggled up in class at Caulfield Heath last start but had won well this level prior at Werribee, look for her to bounce back. TURNAQUID (9) resumes. She doesn't win out of turn but has done so fresh in the past and should be working home late. ETERNAL DARKNESS (4) is racing consistently without winning and should be right there again. MAGNEA (15) next best.
