Race comment

Eased early when 13.7m 5th $8.50 (Fr7) Wahs Fire Bug NZ Menangle 1609m (1:52.4) C0-C1 race Jun 11 then commanding winner $1.30 (Fr5) defeating Gracie Taljuice 12.5m Penrith 2125m (1:57.9) R5768 race Sep 5. Easy winner when resuming last start, making it 4 from 8 overall, including one from one at this track and distance; hard to beat.

Raced wide early and raced wide late when 0.2m 2nd $3.80 (Fr8) Lifes A Jungle Bathurst 1730m (1:57.6) R5671 race Aug 14 then eased early when 15m 4th $5.50 (Fr6) Zahven Banner NZ Penrith 2125m (1:57.6) R5662 race Sep 5. Racing consistently but drawn poorly and each way preferred.

Finished 0.4m 2nd $10.00 (Sr2) Borders Man Bankstown 2140m (2:00.6) R5658 race Aug 23 then beaten 27.5m 5th $16 (Fr2) Zahven Banner NZ Penrith 2125m (1:57.6) R5662 race Sep 5. Mixing form and need to take on trust.

Race comment

Eased early and raced wide late when 6.5m 7th $3.50 (Fr5) Attacknrhythm Penrith 1720m (1:57.2) R5769 race Aug 1 then covered extra ground when 13.7m 3rd $3.60 (Sr2) Zahven Banner NZ Penrith 2125m (1:57.6) R5662 race Sep 5. Useful form in 4 starts this prep and winner at only previous fifth up run; definite danger.

Race comment

Tightened during running when 8.5m 4th $10.00 (Fr4) Borders Man Bankstown 2140m (2:00.6) R5658 race Aug 23 then hung out when beaten 13m 2nd $8.50 (Fr1) Zahven Banner NZ Penrith 2125m (1:57.6) R5662 race Sep 5. Sound in the money chance.

Race comment

Eased early and tired over the latter stages when 39m 8th $26 (Fr5) Courageous Becqui NZ Penrith 1720m (1:57.1) C2-C3 race May 30 then eased early when 47.5m 7th $26 (Fr5) Zahven Banner NZ Penrith 2125m (1:57.6) R5662 race Sep 5. Poor effort last start when resuming but has a sound second up record; treat warily.

Eased early when 16.7m 7th $51 (Fr4) Art I Special NZ Bankstown 2140m (2:01.6) C6390 race Aug 2 then failed to get a clear run when beaten 17.5m 9th $101 (Sr3) Flyin Circles NZ Penrith 1720m (1:57.8) R6068 race Aug 8. Out of form.

Race comment

Raced well when 2.5m 2nd $5.00 (Sr2) Jerada Gotta Major Penrith 1720m (1:58.5) R5470 race Aug 15 then eased early when 16.7m 6th $11 (Fr6) Rockn And Rolln Bathurst 1730m (1:56.5) R5670 race Aug 28. Capable of a good run on his day; not hopeless.
