GOING: F

TAB VENUE MODE PACE 1720m

Track: FAST   Clear (Max: 20)    

MIDNIGHT TERROR (3) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fifth over 1730m at Bathurst after settling at the back. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. KARINYA MAX (5) did a good job to finish third at Forbes two runs ago then settling back and failed to figure at his latest appearance over 1680m at Forbes, beaten 13 metres into sixth. Tackles a similar assignment and he can finish a lot closer this time. THE RINGMASTER (9) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1680m at Forbes five days ago. CARIBBEAN PAT (1) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw.
