Maiden Race 1600m Track: FIRM |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Genuine tempo from Hains Point leading Danon Strada. MIDAS (4) has been in the money at both runs this time in work and the maiden win looks imminent following a good second over 1600m at this track last time. Fitter and should be in the finish. HAINS POINT (6) made his debut last start at a big quote but defied the market to grab second, beaten 4 lengths, over 1600m here. Improver who looks a major player. DANON STRADA (2) has not appeared since he finished second on debut over 1600m at this circuit on November 19. Worth plenty of thought. BRAVO KINGDOM (16) could only manage to finish 13th, beaten 9 lengths, after being in contention on the turn at his latest appearance over 1400m at this venue. Looks to be in the right race to figure in the finish.
