Race comment

Galloped out, raced roughly and broke under pressure when 11m 7th $2.50 (Fr6) Lets Go To Brazil Menangle 1609m (1:52.0) R5477 race Mar 10 then raced well when 6.5m 5th $10.00 (Fr3) Sociable NZ Menangle 1609m (1:52.3) R6191 race Mar 14. Winner at this track and is suited by the distance; winner from this draw previously and well placed to repeat.

Race comment

Checked when 16m 9th $7.90 (Sr2) Father Bob Canberra 2570m (2:01.0) R6680 race Feb 2 then looked good defeating Rockita 4m $2.60 (Sr3) Coolamon 2210m (1:58.7) R6584 race Mar 1. And not helped by the wide draw.

Race comment

Hung in during the race, out of position at the start and eased early when 15m 7th $51 (Fr10) Catch A Moment Menangle 1609m (1:50.6) R6188 race Feb 29 then beaten 8.7m 7th $34 (Fr7) Arma The Gun Menangle 1609m (1:53.5) R6192 race Mar 14. Chance on solid win at this track three back.

Race comment

Checked and tightened during running when 21.5m 7th $2.40 (Sr2) Rolling With Stell Newcastle 2030m (1:58.6) R5986 race Mar 6 then won $6.50 (Fr1) narrowly defeating Fortyeighthenson 0.4m Penrith 2125m (1:58.0) R7391 race Mar 12. Tougher here but hard to knock current winning form.

Race comment

Raced well when 6m 3rd $8.00 (Fr7) Star Major Menangle 1609m (1:53.4) R5260 race Mar 3 then scored handily defeating Arama Reactor 3.7m $1.10 (Fr3) Young 1720m (1:55.6) R5865 race Mar 13. Racing consistently and definite contender from the pole position.

Race comment

First start since spell. Convincing winner $1.00 (Fr7) defeating Our Uncle Alan 6.7m Bathurst 1730m (1:56.8) C2 race May 8 then commanding winner $1.10 (Sr3) defeating Im All Courage 16.5m Dubbo 2120m (1:57.1) C1-C2 race May 24. Resuming after a break should not pose a problem as he is a proven performer first-up (1 from 3) and overall record in weaker company solid (48% from 21 starts) ; warrants respect.

Race comment

Finished 9.5m 4th $7.00 (Fr2) Young Rooster Bankstown 1740m (1:58.8) R5675 race Feb 14 then beaten 10.5m 8th $151 (Fr2) Arma The Gun Menangle 1609m (1:53.5) R6192 race Mar 14. Hard to be positive here.

Race comment

Eased early when 14.7m 6th $8.50 (Fr8) Catch A Moment Menangle 1609m (1:50.6) R6188 race Feb 29 then eased early and held up for a run early in the straight when 1.5m 4th $21 (Fr9) Arma The Gun Menangle 1609m (1:53.5) R6192 race Mar 14. Just out of the placings last start and proven in the distance range; fitter now and stays in the mix.

Race comment

Finished 8.7m 4th $5.00 (Fr3) Im Compliant NZ Newcastle 2030m (1:57.0) R8299 race Mar 6 then eased early when 15.2m 9th $34 (Fr10) Arma The Gun Menangle 1609m (1:53.5) R6192 race Mar 14. One of the lesser chances from the wide draw here.

Race comment

Fought on well defeating Hezbuyindiamonds 0.4m $16 (Fr7) Newcastle 2030m (1:57.0) R8299 race Mar 6 then eased early when 8m 4th $15 (Fr6) No Apachemee NZ Menangle 1609m (1:53.6) R70109 race Mar 14. Drawn poorly but place prospect nevertheless.
