Verdict

An open and competitive race for the grade and if Bhakti turns up on the same form as last time out he could well provide Tom Lacey with a Perth winner at the first attempt and reward what will be a very long journey. A few of these have been given a chance by the handicapper and both Rivabodiva and Cuil Rouge qualify on that score. Both Kings Eclipse and Broadway Belle can be given a chance on previous form but FINAL FLING looks the pick on his Wetherby run last time as long as this doesn’t come too quickly on his second start after a long break.
  1. Final Fling
  2. Broadway Belle
  3. Bhakti
