MIDNIGHT ONYX (10) displayed plenty of early toe and went on to score by half a length last time out over 1646m at this track (Dirt). Will be handy in running despite the tricky draw. Looks well placed so expect another big run. FORT CHARLES (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1646m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is a major player. LUCKY CURLIN (9) turned things around last start and scored by 2 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn as public elect over 1646m at this track (Dirt). Has his share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. FUNKENSTEIN (6) worked home well and finished second last time over 1646m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 2 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
