Race comment

Resuming. Finished 46.5m 8th $12 (Fr6) Miss Catalina Narrabri 2160m (2:02.6) C1-C2 race Apr 14 then checked and broke when 34.5m 10th $5.00 (Sr2) Prettycompact Narrabri 1760m (2:01.6) C0-C1 race Apr 22. Resumes here and fresh form useful; not hopeless.

Race comment

Fought on very well when 3.2m 3rd $4.20 (Fr2) Shazam Shannon Armidale 1980m (2:02.7) R5154 race Mar 15 then ran 32m 6th $6.00 (Sr2) Mickey Ramone Tamworth 1609m (1:58.8) R4751 race Mar 19. Was a handy winner four starts back and this looks like another possible race.

Race comment

Failed to get a clear run when 7m 7th $7.00 (Sr2) Ima Regal Jet Tamworth 1980m (2:04.3) R4751 race Mar 5 then beaten 7m 6th $16 (Sr3) Bongiorno Boys Tamworth 1609m (2:03.1) R4653 race Mar 19. Could fill a spot.

Race comment

Finished 43m 10th $8.50 (Fr6) Bridie Hanover Tamworth 1980m (2:01.8) R4553 race Feb 6 then eased early, inconvenienced and raced roughly when beaten 8.5m 8th $81 (Fr5) Bongiorno Boys Tamworth 1609m (2:03.1) R4653 race Mar 19. Others in better form.

Race comment

Raced wide early when 3.7m 4th $26 (Fr3) Ima Regal Jet Tamworth 1980m (2:04.3) R4751 race Mar 5 then raced wide early when 7m 5th $71 (Fr6) Bongiorno Boys Tamworth 1609m (2:03.1) R4653 race Mar 19. Covered extra ground last start so can forgive the run; has useful record in this distance range and stays in the mix.

Race comment

Eased early when 2.5m 3rd $26 (Fr5) Tactfilly Magic Newcastle 1609m (1:58.2) R4851 race Mar 14 then finished 18m 9th $3.50 (Fr2) Jax Tellar Newcastle 2030m (1:59.5) R4851 race Mar 21. Good run two starts back when placed and drawn well here; each way.

Race comment

Safely held when 6m 5th $6.00 (Sr3) Ima Regal Jet Tamworth 1980m (2:04.3) R4751 race Mar 5 then held on well when 6.5m 2nd $4.40 (Sr3) Moneymatters Armidale 1980m (2:02.0) R4451 race Mar 15. Form consistent at this distance and contender on last start sound second.

Race comment

Finished 23m 3rd $17 (Sr2) Bongiorno Boys Tamworth 1980m (2:01.5) R4047 race Mar 5 then beaten 15m 9th $26 (Fr3) Tactfilly Magic Newcastle 1609m (2:00.1) R4447 race Mar 9. Looks vulnerable here.

Race comment

Broke twice in running when 33.5m 9th $15 (Fr4) Shazam Shannon Armidale 1980m (2:02.7) R5154 race Mar 15 then safely held when 9.2m 6th $7.00 (Fr2) Shazam Shannon Tamworth 1609m (1:59.2) R5156 race Mar 19. Even run last start but could be in the finish here with further improvement.
