Pace genuine with Forecaster and Cold Brew pressing hard closely followed by Monkhana and Show County. FORECASTER (2) backs up seven days after battling on okay for third over the Randwick mile. Coming back to 1400m doesn't look ideal but a heavy 10 will feel like 1600m so give him the benefit of the doubt. The claim of Stanley comes in handy and he looks well placed in this field. DUMEBI (8) went back in trip and failed to measure up at Kembla last start when second-up. Has won both third-up assignments and handles the wet so he ticks a few key boxes. Looks poised to strike third-up and is expected to run a bold race. COLD BREW (5) has won two on the bounce on the provincial circuit. Tougher essay this time but his form should stack up. CONVERGENT (7) comes into this off a freshen where he was solid in Midway company prior. Looks open to plenty of improvement and is not to be discounted. SUGGESTED PLAY: Forecaster gets the nod.
