Good early pressure with Liquor Talk or Citiroc likely to take up the running. MIDNIGHT AFFAIR (6) brings strong figures here and senior rider on from the inside gate. Held a forward position and chased hard to the line when second over 1400m at Wagga. Top three prospect. DUPLI KATE (3) flopped out of the gates before attacking the line late when an eye-catching third over 1300m at Canberra. Back in grade and expected to go close. LIQUOR TALK (8) bumped on jumping when an out of character ninth over 1400m at Orange. Assess on his strong earlier efforts. JANNIK (7) gets the right tempo here after running tenth in a bunched finish over 1300m at Goulburn. Handles all conditions and placed this track and trip. SUGGESTED PLAY: Midnight Affair to win.
