Race comment

Won $6.20 (Sr3) narrowly defeating Scotlynn Beach NZ 0.7m Tabcorp Park 2240m (1:55.5) R6383 race Jan 25 then raced wide early when 10.2m 7th $5.50 (Fr6) Delightful Tara Tabcorp Park 2240m the GROUP3 Rising Stars (grp3) Feb 1. Has a solid win record and definite contender on useful placing in Group3 race three back.

Race comment

Finished 14.2m 8th $157 (Fr4) Phoenix Prince Shepparton 2690m the GROUP2 Shepparton Gold Cup (grp2) Jan 11 then pulled hard and raced wide early when 8.7m 2nd $18 (Fr3) Sicario Echuca 2560m the GROUP3 Echuca Pacing Cup (grp3) Feb 7. Covered extra ground last start but still managed a sound second; could atone in lower grade here.

Race comment

Broke during running when 1.2m 2nd $8.50 (Sr5) Rusty Crackers Temora 2386m (2:00.8) R7395 race Jan 11 then beaten 15.5m 8th $144 (Sr4) Belle Of Montana NZ Tabcorp Park 1720m the MS-GP1 Ladyship Cup (grp1) Feb 1. Mixing form and need to treat warily.

Race comment

Eased early, tightened during running and inconvenienced when 23.5m 6th $126 (Fr8) Balraj NZ Menangle 1609m (1:49.9) R5792 race Jan 25 then eased early when 24m 9th $12 (Fr8) Aqua Miss Menangle 1609m (1:52.1) R7192 race Feb 8. In the mix for minors.

Battled on gamely defeating Key Largo 0.7m $41 (Sr4) Albion Park 1660m (1:54.4) R6069 race Jul 16 then beaten 4m 3rd $5.50 (Sr3) Mach Sam Albury 1770m (2:03.6) R5976 race Feb 7. Place chance only in this company.

Race comment

Held up for a run early in the straight when 2.5m 4th $2.60 (Fr2) The Crimson Prince NZ Tabcorp Park 2240m (1:55.5) R6383 race Jan 25 then good run when 0.2m 2nd $3.40 (Fr1) Delightful Tara Tabcorp Park 2240m the GROUP3 Rising Stars (grp3) Feb 1. Sound in all three recent runs and fitter now; each way.

Race comment

Held up for a run early in the straight and used the sprint lane when 4.7m 4th $8.00 (Sr1) Delightful Tara Tabcorp Park 2240m the GROUP3 Rising Stars (grp3) Feb 1 then fought on well defeating Keayang Secret 0.7m $6.90 (Fr7) Tabcorp Park 2240m (1:57.1) R6485 race Feb 8. Can't discount claims on latest.

Race comment

Was a handy winner $3.80 (Sr2) over Carla Clare 1.2m Temora 2386m (2:00.8) R7395 race Jan 11 then raced wide early, eased early and held up for a run early in the straight when 29m 7th $38 (Fr5) Sicario Echuca 2560m the GROUP3 Echuca Pacing Cup (grp3) Feb 7. Had excuses last start and could improve with a better run here.

Race comment

Eased early and raced roughly when 21m 9th $21 (Fr6) Muscle Mach Menangle 1609m (1:51.5) R5592 race Jan 18 then pulled hard and tired over the latter stages when 89m 6th $6.30 (Sr1) Boncel Benjamin Wangaratta 2210m (1:58.5) R7086 race Jan 26. Take on trust.

Race comment

Beaten 39.5m 9th $16 (Fr6) War Dan Tabcorp Park 2240m (1:55.7) R87110 race Jul 13 then hung in during the race when beaten 11.2m 3rd $15 (Sr1) Sicario Echuca 2560m the GROUP3 Echuca Pacing Cup (grp3) Feb 7. Sound effort when resuming last start and goes well second up (3-2-6); respect.
