Verdict

Cup time now and SECRET ATTRACTION (11) looks the one to beat after a narrow defeat in the Hannans at Kalgoorlie. Only narrowly beaten there when nothing really went right, but the rise to the mile now is no issue. Rates highly and can go one better now. SENSESSIONAL (2) was in fine form before bumping into Railway Stakes fav Cosmic Crusader at his latest outing. He was best of the rest there however and that holds plenty of weight. Should get every chance from the alley and he's in this up to his ears. Pike opts to ride CAPTAIN PLUTO (4) over Sensessional and that's worth keeping in mind. He was good first-up from a long way back under the apprentice hoop and he's placed 4/5 second-up. May need some things to go his way but he'll be doing his best work late. PROPHET AND POWER (9) gets in nicely at the weights following his win 8 days ago and he rates highly on that effort. MULTINATIONAL (5) was too strong in the Hannans and will give them something to chase once again.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up 2nd of 12 at Kalgoorlie Coolgardie Spr on September 7 over 1300m, nose behind Secret Attire carrying 61kg at $6. Second run from a spell came from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Kalgoorlie in the LR Hannans on October 2 over 1400m, neck behind Multinational carrying 54kg at $3.50. Arguably should've won the Hannans and is the one to beat again here.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 36-day let-up. At the latest run sat on speed throughout when 2nd of 8 at Belmont Park Tabtouch Stakes on September 20 over 1650m, on a slow track; 8 len behind Cosmic Crusader with 59kg at $5. Before that ran on from midfield and won by a head at Belmont Park Blue Spec 84+ August 16 over 1600m in soft going defeating Kaptain Kaos with 57kg at $1.75. An inside barrier is a big advantage. Here off a freshen but his form makes for good reading.

Last start raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a head at Ascot Rtg 69+ October 18 over 1600m defeating Little Silver carrying 57kg at $5.50. Racing well.

Second run back. First-up after seven months made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Ascot Rtg 78+ on October 11 over 1400m, 1.1 len behind Bruce Almighty carrying 57kg at $21. Previously second-up 5th of 14 at this track in the LR Northam Cup on October 27 over 1600m, 2.75 len behind Buckets Ridge with 54kg at $12. Form ties in through Bruce Almighty, so he's in with a chance.

Form hard to fault. Last start won by a neck at Kalgoorlie LR Hannans October 2 over 1400m defeating Secret Attraction with 54kg at $23. The race before that 4th of 7 at Belmont Park Blue Spec 84+ on August 16 over 1600m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Sensessional with 55.5kg at $7. Strong in the Hannans and will be tough to run down from the front again.

Previously second-up ran last of 9 at Pinjarra in the G3 Strickland on June 21 over 2000m, on heavy track; 7 len behind Admiration Express carrying 59kg at $101. This looks too tough despite the good gate.
