Race comment

Sound effort when 8.2m 3rd $4.60 (Fr4) Spike Robyn NZ Bathurst 1730m (1:57.5) R6476 race Jul 3 then fought on well defeating Modern Maestro 0.2m $1.80 (Sr2) Dubbo 2120m (2:00.6) R5678 race Jul 14. Was a narrow winner last start when having only his third run this prep and winner at only prior fourth up run.

Raced wide early when 23m 7th $10.00 (Fr6) Rays Choice Dubbo 1720m (1:57.4) C4-C6 race Feb 20 then raced wide late when 0.2m 2nd $4.40 (Sr4) My Secret Beach Dubbo 2120m (2:00.6) R5678 race Jul 14. Placed first up and is proven second up; respect.

Safely held when 5.5m 3rd $21 (Sr3) Skirmish NZ Parkes 2040m (1:59.5) R5778 race Jul 7 then raced wide early and inconvenienced when beaten 16.5m 5th $13 (Fr5) My Secret Beach Dubbo 2120m (2:00.6) R5678 race Jul 14. Covered extra ground early last start and could get a better run from the pole position here; contender.
