Forecaster, Who Ever Thought and Heaven Bound can establish a strong tempo despite the small field. SACREDARRO (6) ploughed through the heavy (9) going on resumption when a tough winner over 1300m at Goulburn. Looking for this trip and further now and has genuine top three claims. PINK SHALALA (2) win record hardly excites but worth noting J Mac sticks after going under narrowly when second over 1550m at this track. Near his top now and will be in this for a long way. WHO EVER THOUGHT (3) well supported third up when leading throughout on his home track for a popular victory over the 1400m in the Scone Country Cup. Gets in light with McMurray's 3kg claim and can keep the ball rolling. FORECASTER (1) the best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Sacredarro.
