SPEAK THE TRUTH (7) was terrific through the Inter Dominion series, winning his second round heat before chasing Leap To Fame as runner-up in the final. There are no rivals of that quality in this and while he draws wide he owns a good strike rate at this circuit and distance. JIMARTEE (6) was midfield in his two Inter Dominion heats before getting home in the consolation. Draws wider but should still make an impact. TIMS A TROOPER (9) was down the track from this barrier in the Inter Dominion final but had placed in his prior heat. He is much better off in this line-up. ROYAL CRUISER (2) draws well and could be close to another win after placing at his last couple. FRANKIE FEROCIOUS (3) did better when placed last week and draws to be competitive.
