Pace is interesting here. Not a lot of speed and thinking that maybe Gidgee Goals is the one to kick on and be positive. MIDKNIGHT AIR was close up here on debut and resumes today after 311 days. He draws well and punting he’ll be ready and he can win if he is. HARVEST PRIDE also resumes and may come over and lead. Placed in his two runs in Open 2's and didn’t have the best of it and expect a bold run. CRAIGLEA PUMA was beaten in a 60 2U and has more to give. The draw is tricky but he has some claims. CRAIGLEA ZING is also on the improve.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Midknight Air.
