Verdict

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 1 ?m 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 1 ¼m.
