Champion pacer LEAP TO FAME (4) was very brave in defeat in last week's Blacks a Fake, working hard from his back row row draw but digging deep to be edged out on the line. Had won 23 on end at this circuit prior. He should be adding another one against these. SPEAK THE TRUTH (3) boxed on for fifth when resuming in the Blacks A Fake and he strikes at 50 per cent when second-up so can progress. Runner-up to Leap To Fame in the Inter Dominion final here in July and could chase him home again. CAPTAIN HAMMERHEAD (5) kicked off his campaign with back-to-back placings before breaking through for a 10m win at this circuit and distance last week. This is much stronger but he is ticking along well. TIMS A TROOPER (1) did a good job for fourth from the back row in the Blacks A Fake and gets the ace draw tonight.
