Verdict

LUDINA (10) continues to build nicely into her prep, last start sticking on strongly for second over the mile at Balaklava. She looks open to further improvement and shapes as the one they'll have to beat. THE PUNK ROCKER (6) comes through the same race, improving to finish fifth after racing prominently. Strips fitter third-up, draws well, and can give this a serious shake. PRINCE LUCIFER (7) showed good late strength when finishing fourth at Gawler and should relish the step up in trip. He's capable of playing a major role. GOOCHEE GAL (8) disappointed last time but had been racing consistently prior. She's more than capable of bouncing back and shouldn't be overlooked.
