MIDNIGHT THUNDER (4) turned in a plain performance last time when eighth at this track over 450m behind Rhythmic Energy (26.11) in a Grade 5. Has winning claims on his best figures. SPANISH ARMADA (7) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (22.53) last time in a Mix 3/4 at this track. Form here sound including seven wins. Can measure up this time. AMRON TOMMY (8) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, most recently finishing 3rd at this track over 450m. Must be included in calculations. TOMMY MARRA (1) placed last time out so worth considering.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by 1.75 lengths at this track (22.47) beating Dim Sim Rixi in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 on August 27. Will not find this easy. Not keen.
