Expecting a keen tempo with Nicoffhome set alight, joined by Zeusmas and Madame Lexis up front. Competitive. MIDNIGHT GLOW (2) has been racing in stronger and led them up beaten 3 lengths over 2600m at Cranbourne three weeks ago. Has the inside gate and a handy 2kg claim. Finds the right race and can find winning form. MADAME LEXIS (5) deserved her win this track and trip and then dropped back to a middle distance beaten 2.7L in tougher. Better suited today and she's a decent chance to bounce. DIGGERS AIM (7) won his Maiden this track/trip by almost 5L and then found one better at the venue back to 2000m in a 62. Has jumped out well since and is in the mix. HOLLANDIA (4) has been within range his last two here at the distance and keeps putting in. Ben Allen replaces the apprentice and he can be in the money again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Midnight Glow appeals most.
