Genuine tempo with the speedy Infant Warrior leading the way. A plain maiden to kick things off. AT HER MERCY (5) raced on the speed then found plenty when asked but found one better when resuming over this distance in a $50k maiden at Wagga last start. Won't find this any harder so she comes right into calculations. MAJESTIC LEGEND (12) has been freshened up since failing over 1100m at Gosford seven weeks ago. Ran a couple of nice races over today's journey prior to that. Should play a major role. ANDHE'S BRAVE (10) strips fitter after a couple of modest efforts so far this prep. Exotics only. VINGT NEUF NOIR (14) will find this easier than recent assignments. Capable of a spike in form. SUGGESTED PLAY: Straight out At Her Mercy.
