Verdict

ALABAMA HUSSY (4) sharp form reversal second-up when she closed strongly to score a comfortable win over 6 ½f at Bathurst on the firmer track. Has further upside as she gets out to the 7f and gets every chance again from the inside draw. LADY GOT BLING (8) lightly raced mare heading in the right direction. Has come back much stronger this time in after winning well first-up and then going under narrowly when second over 6f at Goulburn. Best figures measure up and look for her late. ROYALTOWN (3) first-up after five months he never looked comfortable on the Canberra Acton track when fifth over 6 ?f in C2 grade. Impressed in the first preparation and expected to go close. DIAMOND FROST (2) sound winner first-up, then failed to run on with a battling sixth over 6 ?f on the Canberra Acton track. Will go back from the gate and be ridden for luck. The chances don't end there.
