SELECTIONS: TOUGH AINT ENOUGH (8), MIDNIGHT PIRATE (2), AVOCA BLUES (3), GO AWAY AGAIN (9)
OVERVIEW: TOUGH AINT ENOUGH (8) has returned from a break in great form and will prove hard to beat again. He pushed forward to race without cover and recorded a sizzling mile rate of 1.56.2 when a big winner over Good Boots Bindi at his latest attempt. MIDNIGHT PIRATE (2) won twice in succession prior to a strong second behind AVOCA BLUES (3) at Mildura on August 08. He performs best when he is close to the speed so he is perfectly drawn to suit his racing pattern and he is sure to make his presence felt. AVOCA BLUES (3) was expertly driven to gain the perfect trip behind MIDNIGHT PIRATE (2) when he scored two starts ago then finished second after trailing the leader throughout at Mildura last week. He is racing in peak form and is one of the leading chances again. KIALLA KID (4) is resuming since October but has been performing well at the trials and GO AWAY AGAIN (9) will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment.
EARLY SPEED: 2 (possible leader), 1,3
RATINGS: 8/ 2,3/ 4,9/ 1
