Resuming from a spell. Eased early when 8m 5th $31 (Fr9) Tinted Lass Newcastle 1609m (1:56.1) R5770 race Aug 16 then slow to begin when 38m 7th $2.90 (Fr1) Helix NZ Newcastle 2030m (1:57.4) R5971 race Aug 19. Back from a spell and while unplaced in 3 previous fresh runs overall form useful and bears watching.
