CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT (6) had the drop on the lead from the rails draw last start but could only manage third, beaten 6 lengths (22.97) at this track in a Maiden over 400m. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Must come into calculations. RITZY RUTH (1) showed ability on debut filling a minor placing when third (23.33) at Shepparton over 390m. Draws the cherry. Can feature again with the right run. ASTON SWOOP (5) is a handily bred pup making his debut without a trial. Among the leading players. SEIZED ASSETS (7) is by Fernando Bale out of Quinnish making debut. Start all important and will need some luck getting across from the wide draw. Market should provide a lead to her ability.

Comments

Ran a nice race on debut when settled off the speed early but got home well to finish third (23.33) at Shepparton over 390m. Further improved and drops down to the inside box this time. Should be right in the finish.

Ran a better race when second behind Curdievale Rhode at this track last start over 400m (23.20). Good beginner who shouldn't be far away in the run.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 390m at Warrnambool. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Is a six start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when third (22.97) over 400m at this track. Was prominent most of the way and only faded late. Expected to feature in the finish.
