Tightened during running and tired over the latter stages when 56m 10th $4.20 (Fr4) Ultimate Force Newcastle 1609m (1:58.2) R3653 race Jan 17 then eased early when 13.7m 5th $3.80 (Fr8) Wallaroy Boy Newcastle 1609m (1:59.6) R3846 race Jan 25.

Ran 32.5m 8th $11 (Sr2) Downtown Lucca Tamworth 1609m (2:00.1) R4655 race Jan 23 then eased early and suffered a severe check when beaten 39.5m 6th $5.00 (Fr6) White Wash Tamworth 1980m (2:00.2) R3854 race Feb 6. Fitter for two recent runs from a spell and has placed 1 from 3 third up; contender from a suitable draw here.

Race comment

Tired over the latter stages when distanced 10th $34 (Sr2) Heavenly Song Bankstown 1740m (1:59.8) R3947 race Dec 27 then beaten 7.2m 2nd (Fr4) Bandsix Penrith 1720m (2:00.5) R4049 race Jan 30. Not hopeless on latest effort.

Race comment

Eased early when 14.5m 6th $61 (Fr10) Wallaroy Boy Newcastle 1609m (1:59.6) R3846 race Jan 25 then beaten 26m 9th $51 (Fr1) Advanced Warfare Newcastle 1609m (1:55.9) R3753 race Feb 1. Needs to lift.

Race comment

Impressive winner $6.50 (Fr4) defeating Motu Zest For Life NZ 7.7m Tamworth 1609m (1:58.8) R4555 race Jan 23 then out of position at the start when 16m 7th $7.00 (Sr4) Choisir Damour Tamworth 1980m (2:01.6) R4355 race Feb 6. Lightly raced and solid winner two back; had issues at the start last time and can bounce back with a cleaner getaway here.

Race comment

Ran 22.5m 9th $9.50 (Sr1) Molly Montana Redcliffe 2040m (2:01.5) R4549 race Jan 23 then good run to place 3.7m 3rd $4.60 (Fr5) Doolittle Dandy Redcliffe 1780m (2:00.4) R4449 race Jan 29. Unlikely starter.
