Race comment

Good run when 0.2m 2nd $4.80 (Sr1) Edie Jaccka NZ Newcastle 2030m (1:59.3) R5672 race Apr 4 then raced wide early when 25m 9th $5.00 (Sr3) Repartee NZ Tamworth 1980m (2:00.5) R4965 race Apr 13. Had a minor excuse last start and previous two runs at this track solid; can bounce back.

Finished 17.7m 6th $71 (Fr4) Bohannan NZ Tamworth 2360m (2:01.3) R5776 race Apr 13 then beaten 11.2m 4th $101 (Fr6) Marty Major Tamworth 1980m (2:00.4) R5669 race Apr 23. Just out of the placings last start; could figure in the minors.

Race comment

Broke during running when 11.7m 7th $5.50 (Sr1) Repartee NZ Newcastle 1609m (1:57.6) R4961 race Apr 6 then scored handily defeating Popstaromar 1.5m $4.80 (Sr1) Newcastle 1609m (1:57.5) R5054 race Apr 18. Up in grade but is a last start winner proven at this track and distance; keep in mind for the exotics.

Race comment

Won $3.00 (Fr5) narrowly over Just Tommy 0.4m Newcastle 1609m (1:56.3) R4762 race Apr 6 then safely held when 7.5m 5th $9.00 (Fr3) Itz Georgiaonmymind NZ Newcastle 1609m (1:54.9) R5972 race Apr 18. Sound in three runs this prep and fitter now; each way.

Race comment

Resuming. Raced roughly when 8.5m 3rd $13 (Fr6) Heart Of Cooper Menangle 1609m (1:54.3) R4758 race Nov 16 then out of position at the start and raced wide when 27.5m 8th $5.50 (Fr10) Justajolt Newcastle 1609m (1:58.7) R5165 race Nov 20. Back from a spell and while unplaced in 3 previous fresh runs both of his two career wins came at this track and distance and not out of it.

Finished 15.5m 9th $2.40 (Fr4) Mondooley Heaven Newcastle 1609m (1:56.0) R5984 race Aug 3 then raced wide early and tired over the latter stages when distanced 10th $13 (Fr5) Lightning Bob Newcastle 1609m (1:55.1) R5872 race Apr 18. Had issues when resuming last start and goes well second up (2-2-6); could improve sharply.

Scored handily defeating Hes The Warrior NZ 1.2m $8.00 (Sr2) Tamworth 1980m (2:00.5) R4965 race Apr 13 then handy effort when 8.5m 4th $2.00 (Sr2) Master Catch Newcastle 2030m (1:57.5) R5669 race Apr 25. Holding form well and contender here despite a wide draw.
