Race comment

Eased early when 6.5m 5th $10.00 (Fr6) Bohannan NZ Menangle 1609m (1:52.1) R5585 race Feb 1 then tightened during running when 6m 5th $8.00 (Fr9) Paternity Suit Menangle 1609m (1:51.9) R6888 race Feb 8. Could sneak a place.

Scored handily defeating Dr Susan NZ 2.2m $1.50 (Fr6) Ballarat 2710m (1:57.3) 3F5171 race Jan 18 then raced wide late when 4.5m 2nd $1.90 (Sr5) Dr Susan NZ Tabcorp Park 2760m the 3F-GP1 Victoria Oaks (grp1) Jan 25. Very consistent (44% win rate) and can enhance that record here.

Eased early when 0.4m 3rd $2.40 (Fr5) Colossal Stride Menangle 1609m (1:53.8) R64120 race Feb 1 then eased early when 14.2m 7th $7.00 (Fr10) Paternity Suit Menangle 1609m (1:51.9) R6888 race Feb 8. Below par last start but not out of it on solid previous form.

Eased early when 25m 7th $26 (Fr9) Match In Heaven Menangle 2300m (1:53.3) R72113 race Feb 1 then raced wide early, covered extra ground and inconvenienced when 21.5m 10th $26 (Fr7) Paternity Suit Menangle 1609m (1:51.9) R6888 race Feb 8. Chance on sound win four back.

Beaten 38.5m 10th $51 (Fr6) Balraj NZ Menangle 1609m (1:49.9) R5792 race Jan 25 then good effort to place 0.2m 3rd $4.60 (Fr5) Paternity Suit Menangle 1609m (1:51.9) R6888 race Feb 8. Useful run when 3rd at last start and likes the distance; in the mix.

Race comment

Looked good defeating Drive The Dream NZ 3.5m $3.80 (Fr5) Menangle 1609m (1:52.5) R6684 race Feb 1 then beaten 0.1m 2nd $9.50 (Fr4) Paternity Suit Menangle 1609m (1:51.9) R6888 race Feb 8. Genuine in the money prospect.

Race comment

Eased early, raced roughly and held up for a run early in the straight when 13.5m 4th $7.00 (Fr7) Culture King Goulburn 2240m (1:57.1) R5873 race Jan 19 then held up for a run early in the straight when 21.5m 2nd $41 (Fr2) Balraj NZ Menangle 1609m (1:49.9) R5792 race Jan 25. Blocked for a run when unlucky 2nd last start and fitter now; can't ignore.

Race comment

Most impressive defeating Zadaka NZ 11m $3.10 (Fr3) Menangle 1609m (1:51.8) R5786 race Jan 25 then good run to place 0.2m 2nd $2.80 (Fr2) Colossal Stride Menangle 1609m (1:53.8) R64120 race Feb 1. Racing well and warrants respect despite a tricky draw.

Race comment

Handy win $2.70 (Sr1) defeating Mister Hart 1.5m Redcliffe 2040m (1:58.0) R6481 race Jan 29 then eased early when 22m 7th $10.00 (Fr5) Aqua Miss Menangle 1609m (1:52.1) R7192 race Feb 8. Might need it easier.

Race comment

Eased early when 9.2m 8th $41 (Fr9) Colossal Stride Menangle 1609m (1:53.8) R64120 race Feb 1 then beaten 9m 3rd $16 (Fr7) Scoob Operator NZ Menangle 2300m (1:55.1) R74120 race Feb 8. Unlikely starter.

Race comment

Resuming. Failed to finish behind Cruz NZ Albion Park 2138m (1:55.0) C4+ race Jun 29 then raced wide late when 11m 5th $26 (Fr7) Chantrey NZ Albion Park 1660m (1:54.7) R7495 race Jul 6. Unlikely starter.
