Verdict

SEDUCTRA (3) did not do a great deal when last on the track. The first up run was a lot better though. Go on her 2yo form which was excellent. QUEEN'S RHAPSODY (1) has barely put in a bad one so far. Even when beaten it has not been by big margins. Gets a sweet run in transit. WILD COURAGE (6) got a deserved win at Wyong. You would think another ½f would only benefit her. SACROSANCT (2) comes from a stable in form. Could easily find her way into the placings again off that.
