Call Me Basil is the likely leader at a slick tempo. CALL ME BASIL (1) returned for his second campaign with a handy on-pace third over 1258m at Taree in a Super Maiden. Senior rider hops on and doesn't have to improve much to win this. COSMORA (7) thereabouts on the provincial circuit and can play a leading role at this level. Can get cover from the draw and shapes as a key chance. NETT'S GIRL (3) excellent debut when coming from near last on the turn for a narrow second over 1400m at Taree on October 17. Kept up to the mark with a 1005m trial placing and expected to go close. METAL MAGIC second run back after a let-up. Closed strongly with the 59kg when a narrow second over 1400m at Bathurst. Races best with his runs spaced and capable of taking this out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Call Me Basil will go close.
