Attractable to set a strong early tempo joined by New Endeavour pushing on from an outside draw. Group 1 placegetter DETONATOR JACK (1) warmed up late when an eye-catching sixth over 1600m in the G1 Doncaster Mile at Randwick. Third-up record is strong and should be able to race closer. Looks hard to beat. Multiple Group 2 placegetter JUST FOLK (6) indicated a win was imminent after sitting on the speed with the 60kg when a narrow third over 1600m in the LR Golden Mile at Bendigo on April 13. Gets his chance with Rawiller engaged. Group 3 winner WELWAL (11) returns from a 35-day let-up and will need some McDonald magic from the sticky gate. Strong through the line when third in the G3 Doncaster Prel over 1500m at Rosehill on March 30. Races best fresh and has genuine claims. BERKSHIRE SHADOW (3) wasn't disgraced in the Doncaster last time out and this appears a much easier race on paper. Sticky draw but he looks ready to peak now. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 1,6,11.
