Healesville Race 4 - Montrose Iga Liquor
MIDNIGHT IN SALE (6) flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 2 length third (16.92) over 300m at this track and making it two placings on end. Boasts two wins from three starts out of this box. Top prospect. REIKO BENNY (5) was below best last time but prior to that was narrowly beaten when sixth (16.92) in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 at this track. Well placed here and can atone this time. KARACHI (2) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (19.69) at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expecting another good run. YEAH YOU (8) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 450m at Shepparton. Others have better credentials.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (16.92) over 300m at this track. Rates highly on best form. Expected to feature.

Missed the frame last start when fifth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning three on end before placing two back. Has ability and looks one of the hopes in this.
