Stake: $9,760

MIDNITE DESIRE (4) resumes after finishing tenth at his latest appearance at this track on July 10. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. KYRGIOS (1) resumes here after closing his last campaign with a fifth at Maryborough on June 29. Has ability and should be right in the finish. DANCINWIVJOLENE (2) last appeared when fourth over 2200m at this track five-and-a-half months ago. Look out for any positive market movement. AWAY GAME (3) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 6 metres at Hobart over 2090m.

Fair performance when beaten by 5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Jeremy Wells at this track over 1680m on August 23 at $4. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Gobsmacked at this track over 2200m on August 30 at $5. Rates highly. Rates highly and can go one better.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Iden Oliver at Hobart over 2090m on August 21 at $31. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing third behind Sapphire Gambler at Hobart over 2090m on September 11 at $12. Nice effort last time. Shapes as one to consider.
