Finished 11.2m 4th $21 (Sr1) Overpowering Young 1720m (1:58.4) R5155 race Jan 21 then eased early when 16m 6th $34 (Fr5) Needitwantitdoit Parkes 1660m (1:58.7) R4953 race Jan 26. A minor place at best.

Ran 16m 5th $6.00 (Sr1) Substitooth Bathurst 1730m (1:59.4) 2R3947 race Jul 3 then finished 14m 6th $21 (Fr2) Slick Blaster Wagga Paceway 1740m (1:55.0) 3R5052 race Jan 14. Fitter for the first-up run and a placegetter at this distance; this is a suitable race for him to return to winning form.

Race comment

Fought on very well when 2.5m 3rd $21 (Sr1) Impersonate Dubbo 2120m (2:03.4) R4655 race Jan 22 then safely held when 7.7m 8th $5.00 (Fr8) The Warp Reactor Bathurst 1730m (1:59.5) R4647 race Jan 29. Mixing form this prep but is proven at this track and distance and an each way chance at least.

Finished 12.2m 9th $4.80 (Fr2) Courageous Beau Bathurst 1730m (2:00.7) R4047 race Jan 17 then beaten 11m 5th $23 (Fr2) Llanfair Rumours Bathurst 1730m (1:57.7) R3745 race Jan 29. One of the lesser chances.

Race comment

Checked at the start and raced wide late when 30m 8th $41 (Sr3) Humming Top Penrith 2125m (2:01.6) R4150 race Jan 9 then beaten 19m 5th $101 (Fr3) Mach Angelo Bankstown 1740m (2:01.9) R4052 race Jan 24. Needs to lift again.

Race comment

Eased early when 4.5m 5th $26 (Fr8) Hall Star Bathurst 1730m (2:00.7) R4751 race Jan 17 then failed to get a clear run when beaten 12.5m 5th $3.90 (Fr3) Old Farm Way Parkes 1660m (1:59.6) R4156 race Jan 26. Had excuses in recent starts and not out of it on solid win four back.

Race comment

Eased early when 9.5m 8th $31 (Fr6) Hall Star Bathurst 1730m (2:00.7) R4751 race Jan 17 then beaten 7.7m 4th $5.00 (Sr1) A True Sensation Parkes 2040m (2:03.1) R3949 race Jan 26. Just out of the placings last start and proven in the distance range; keep in mind for the exotics.

Race comment

Handy effort when 9m 7th $13 (Sr1) Hall Star Bathurst 1730m (2:00.7) R4751 race Jan 17 then easy winner (Sr3) over Shes Worth It 7.2m Penrith 1720m (2:00.5) R4049 race Jan 30. Last start easy winner and could go on here.

Race comment

Out of position at the start and inconvenienced when 45.5m 9th (Sr2) Kanena Provlima Bathurst 1730m (1:57.8) R4952 race Jan 6 then out of position at the start when distanced 10th $126 (Sr3) Lochiel NZ Bathurst 1730m (1:55.6) R4758 race Jan 29. Take on trust.

Race comment

Eased early and tired over the latter stages when 75m 9th $81 (Fr5) Major Crisis Penrith 1720m (1:57.6) R4156 race Jan 9 then beaten 36.5m 7th $34 (Sr3) Jax Tellar Bankstown 2140m (2:06.4) R3647 race Jan 24. Prefer others.
