ALTA TRIBUTE (1) is a progressive pacer who had added to a strong strike rate by winning his two starts at Pinjarra since a spell. Led from a wider barrier last time so can take full advantage of the ace draw and has recorded three wins and a placing in four tries at this circuit and distance. Take beating. IM THE BLACK FLASH (2) was an impressive winner when resuming here last start, racing three wide without cover from a 50m handicap before getting home by 5.5 metres. Has won four of six second-up attempts so must rate highly. LUSAKA (10) improved to miss by just a head here last week and owns a good third-up record so can progress further. FRANCO ENCORE (5) must be respected after winning two of three starts this time in, the latest from this barrier at this venue and distance. GOLDEN LODE (7) has claims off a fresh placing from a wider barrier.
