Solid tempo with Blackfish going forward from the good draw. BLACKFISH (7) backs up quickly after a solid placing at Narromine, where he found the line strongly. Drawn to get the right run and looks primed to go one better. PRIZUGA (3) was brave in defeat last start when leading for most of the 1300m trip at Narromine before being collared late. With similar tactics he’ll be tough to run down. BILLABONG ALVIN (1) stuck on gamely for third at Narromine last start and is racing well enough to be in the mix again. BRANDYWINE (8) is knocking on the door but has admittedly had enough goes. Keeping safe in wider exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Blackfish gets the nod.
