Alice Springs Race 4 - Ladbrokes Same Race Multi, 2Nd Leg National Appr Race Series Hcp (64)
MIDNIGHT HUSTLE (2) is a former Victorian who has raced twice for the new yard, placing the first run then leading throughout to score with ease before another break. Tricky gate but goes well fresh and expected to take catching. TANGO STEPZ (6) is a veteran mare but continues to race well and could be over the odds. Has five wins and six minors from 15 at the course and distance and is very well weighted in this with her record. Looks hard to beat on her best. TELLEZ (4) ran below expectations last time finished last year after jumping awkwardly, being gassed early then tiring late. Much better than that and previous few ratings are good for this. RIVER FROST (3) goes well fresh and off the inside should give a sight. BETTER NOT FUSS (5) might find this trip a little sharp but has the ability and should be winding up late.

Last start failed to make an impression; ran last of 7 at this track 0 - 64 on February 21 over 1200m, 8 len behind Black Zous with 60.5kg at $3.70. Before that 3rd of 7 at this track 0 - 64 on January 24 over 1100m, 2.25 len behind Buckleup Buddy with 60.5kg at $1.60. Well-placed and a big chance to atone for a below pat run last time.

Racing well recently. Most recently 4th of 7 at this track 0 - 64 on February 21 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Black Zous with 58kg at $12. The start before that 2nd of 7 at this track 0 - 64 on January 24 over 1100m, neck behind Buckleup Buddy with 57.5kg at $17. Very well weighted and looks hard to beat on her best form.
