Verdict

MIDNIGHT GLOW (1) is in a similar boat, drawn wide but way down in grade off a BM74 run at Sandown Hillside. Up right in the weights from that but is well placed. THE QUIET IMMORTAL (6) was a maiden winner two back at Wodonga, good again last time to this trip at Wangaratta. Turns around quickly from that and draws well, consider. ADMIRE FLUKE (3) might get a good run on speed and that could prove key. CATALONA (10) doesn't win out of turn but has been freshened with 51 days and remains in the each-way chances.
