RED CLOUD (6) resumes from a spell of six months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Looks the one to beat. MIDNIGHT STROLLER (5) is a 22-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 16 lengths when sixth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Will take a lot from that hit-out and looks a strong chance to break through. THE GROOM'S JUL (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 13 lengths. Must raise the bar but this is well within his grasp. DOOM LOOP (4) is resuming from a spell of six-and-a-half months and having his first run for the J Michael Baird yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at this track (Dirt) over 1106m.
