Testing The Cugat to find the front in the small field. SOUTHERLY BUSTER (1) tough country-trained mare who will appreciate the drop in grade. Got well out of his ground and failed to make an impression with a disappointing seventh over 2140m at Warwick Farm. Assess on his good second two-back at Scone. Can return to winning form. DUNEDIN (5) just over five weeks between runs when back in trip for a battling tenth over 1400m at Mudgee. Proven at this level and can make a sharp improvement with the claim. Value contender. BLAZING GURU (4) third run for the new yard and coming along well. Stretches out to this trip for the first time after she closed off with the 60.5kg to run sixth over 1850m at Mudgee. Can take this out without surprising. WILL TO EXCEL (3) back in trip from the wide gate with a game fourth over 1850m at Mudgee. Maps well for this and not to be underestimated. SUGGESTED PLAY: Southerly Buster can return to winning form.
