Mildura (H) Race 1 - C.a. Fitness Pace
THE GOLDEN HOOK (3) continued his strong form last time when runner-up from a wider barrier at this circuit and distance. Scored back-to-back wins prior. Likely to get the favours from this draw so can play a major role again. MIDNIGHT PIRATE (4) has had two runs this campaign without filling a placing but has had to work each time so has been far from disgraced. He should be closing in on peak fitness now. CHEERS POVERTY (2) missed narrowly last time and led from wider to win here three back so can give a big sight from the low draw. KEAYANG MOROCCAN (5) returns to the front row off a series of second line draws and didn't do a bad job when fourth here last time out.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m fifth behind Royal Saxon at this track over 2190m last start. Before that was beaten a head second again at this track over 1790m same class on September 18. Racing well and not without merit.
