Genuine pace with Black Adam finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. COSMIC ATTRACTION (11) proved too classy on debut when saluting over 1100m at Nowra in fast time. Up to the 1200m on the soft (6) track when disappointed to finish fifth at Nowra. Maps well and can play a leading role in this average contest. DRY FIRE (7) kept fresh, and the blinkers go on after the two solid jump outs. From astute Flemington yard and finds a weak contest. JASKIER (5) gone to a new level this campaign and should be able to get cover from the sticky gate. Speared across from the wide gate when a tough winner over 1300m at Corowa. Don't underestimate. MER CHAR (6) lightly raced gelding who returned from the lengthy break with an encouraging fourth over 1175m at this track. Fitter now and gets his chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 11,7,5,6.
