Verdict

RICH LADY (9) has attacked the line with gusto and been beaten narrowly in her two runs this prep, both in similar races to this at Balaklava. Draws the fence so she should enjoy a perfect run. Has registered a remarkable 15 placings from 25 at this trip without winning - maybe today is the big day. MERCURY EIGHT (1) led all the way for an arrogant first-up win over today's journey at Balaklava against BM58 opposition. Has been given a five-week let-up since that performance. Distance specialist who looks the biggest threat. Veteran THE MAGISTRATE (8) led but was overwhelmed over this trip at Balaklava last time. Can never be ruled out of a race like this. HEAVEN ROCKS (4) is a very good fresh performer who is in the mix first-up from a 136-day spell. MUSICAL SUNSET (7) put in an out-of-character run last start at Balaklava. Worth another chance.
