Temora Race 10 - Rick Firman's Menswear
THURKETTLE (2) was out of the placings last time when fifth at this track (19.18) but scored four back at this track (18.92). Tough to beat if on-song. MIDNIGHT HIGHWAY (1) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 2nd at this track over 330m. Bold showing expected. ZIPPING KIMMICH (8) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (20.12) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Can hit the frame this time. DARBY SAID (3) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Showed good improvement when second behind Mako Merv at this track last start over 330m (19.03). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.

Was out of the placings at his last run before a break of four-and-a-half months when fifth at this track over 330m. Jumps well and will be in this for a long way.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (19.34) over 330m at this track. Aided by a low draw and in the mix on his best form.

Missed the frame last time when fourth (30.37) at Sandown. Prior to that had been racing well. Boxed awkwardly and will need the right run to feature.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, capable of taking this out.
