The men in navy blue have hardly been challenged thus far in Orange's top tier Twenty20 competition and despite being assured a place in the semi-finals, Curtale doesn't want his team losing its momentum.
"The more games we win the more we get to go over there and play under lights," he said.
"We might change it up a bit, a few guys who haven't had much of a bat might come up the order. But our focus remains on winning," Curtale said.
It will once again be a strong team heading to Orange, further sparked by the return of under 19 NSW Country/ACT opening bowler Jacob McNaught.
McNaught featured in Cowra's win over Kinross late last year impressing with pace and bounce, to finish with miserly figures of 1-14 from four.
He'll join brother Sam McNaught while the the in-form David Henderson completes the three-prong pace attack, they'll be supported by Brendan Traves and Jarrod Proctor.
"Jacob's back, he's a big inclusion for us," Curtale said.
"Everyone's key in Twenty20 though, all the boys have been doing their job whether it be opening the batting, the bowling or contributing in their roles."
Cowra's opposition, Molong, have had a tough time in the Royal Hotel Cup this season, they currently sit on the bottom of Pool A with no wins to their name.
Win or lose, due to Cowra's incredible net run rate, they are likely to remain on top of their pool and will play the runner up of Pool B. Lithgow, Orange City and CYMS are all potential semi final opponents.
Cowra will play Molong at 6.30pm tonight at Wade Park.
