Race comment

First start since spell. Failed to get a clear run when 27.5m 10th $4.50 (Fr6) Match In Heaven Menangle 1609m (1:50.9) M1 race Apr 7 then was a handy winner $2.40 (Fr4) over Better Than Max 2m Menangle 1609m (1:52.7) C3+ race Apr 14. Resumes here and is a winner of 2 from 4 fresh; winner before the break and while he could get back from this gate early likely to be storming home late and could be hard to hold out.

Safely held when 8m 7th $11 (Fr1) Islandspecialmajor Menangle 2300m (1:58.5) R81118 race Aug 10 then eased early and raced wide early when 10.5m 7th $9.50 (Fr9) Mister Brazil Menangle 1609m (1:51.7) R8297 race Aug 17. This is easier than in recent starts and could improve sharply; consider for multiples.

Finished 24m 6th $26 (Fr3) Fouroeight Bathurst 1730m (1:55.0) R69100 race Sep 4 then eased early when 19.5m 7th $51 (Fr5) Maximus Red Young 1720m (1:55.6) R75109 race Sep 13. Others rate better.

Hung in during the race when 10.5m 5th $26 (Fr3) Maximus Red Young 1720m (1:55.6) R75109 race Sep 13 then used the sprint lane when 4.5m 3rd $41 (Fr1) Modern Maestro Bathurst 2260m (1:59.6) R76109 race Sep 18. Distance suits and likely leader from the pole position; could figure in the finish.

Eased early when 3.7m 5th $15 (Fr5) Fortyeighthenson Penrith 1720m (1:55.8) R6890 race Sep 12 then beaten 23m 7th $81 (Fr2) Modern Maestro Bathurst 2260m (1:59.6) R76109 race Sep 18. Won't find this easy.

Race comment

Resuming. Good run to place 0.5m 2nd $7.00 (Fr8) Squire Bathurst 1730m (1:55.0) R7589 race Jul 10 then finished 26.5m 8th $12 (Fr3) Bronski Belle Menangle 1609m (1:52.4) R7893 race Jul 20. Back from a break and drawn well here; goes well fresh and a contender again.

Finished 18m 9th $4.20 (Fr5) Don Boston Menangle 1609m (1:52.5) C7691 race Sep 10 then beaten 8.7m 4th $26 (Fr3) Modern Maestro Bathurst 2260m (1:59.6) R76109 race Sep 18. Minor place preferred.

Finished 12.2m 6th $21 (Fr2) Benicio Menangle 1609m (1:52.2) R8199 race Sep 7 then scored handily over The Times A Changing NZ 2.2m $13 (Fr5) Newcastle 1609m (1:55.1) R7789 race Sep 14. In the mix on last start win in weaker company.

Eased early when 28m 9th $81 (Fr6) Maximus Red Young 1720m (1:55.6) R75109 race Sep 13 then beaten 9m 5th $101 (Fr4) Modern Maestro Bathurst 2260m (1:59.6) R76109 race Sep 18. Modest claims for this one on current form.

Race comment

Beaten 33m 4th $6.00 (Fr2) Fouroeight Cowra 2970m (2:02.5) R67100 race Sep 8 then battled on gamely defeating Fouroeight 0.5m $4.80 (Fr5) Bathurst 2260m (1:59.6) R76109 race Sep 18. Last start winner and also a winner of 8 races in this distance range but not helped by draw here; each way.

Race comment

Back from a spell. Fought on well defeating Misterfreeze 0.7m $23 (Fr3) Young 1720m (1:59.2) C5+ race Mar 20 then tired over the latter stages when 69m 7th $41 (Fr3) Courtsinsession Bathurst 2260m (1:56.1) C4+ race Mar 29. Resumes here and has useful first up form.
