Good pace from Wiccan Warrior, Maphaka and Mr Master Starter and they'll have company. SOHO STAR (6) is a four-time winner who has been performing well, scoring by a nose last time out over 1200m at this track. Races well here and is a major contender. WICCAN WARRIOR (2) was always forward and boxed on to finish second over 1200m at this track last time. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Best form puts him right in this. BLACK EGRET (1) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1200m at this track. Placed to advantage and can make amends. RIVERSTONE (8) finished third last time over 1200m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Nicely placed to fill a top-three spot again.
