SANZENO (4) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 2.25 lengths, over 1400m at Orange. Rates highly and expected to go well. PHAROAHZANO (7) found the line nicely but never threatened over 1450m at Muswellbrook last time out when finishing midfield. Record at this journey is sound with two wins from five runs and expected to feature. MIDNIGHT AFFAIR (10) was a narrow winner two back at Bathurst then in the placings last time at Wagga. Will appreciate the drop in the weights. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and a placing from four starts. Strong claims on best figures. TAVANASIA (8) strode forward early from his wide draw over 1400m at Wellington last time before fading to finish seventh. Can feature in the finish.
