Scored at Cromwell two back then less effective last time when seventh over 2600m at Addington. Major player on best form.

Didn't perform well last start from an awkward draw when ninth at Motukarara over 2170m, beaten 9 metres. Better than the latest run and from a low draw gets his chance to bounce back.

Struggling to find form and has been out of the winners' list at his last 62 runs. Last start finished 12th over 1700m at Ashburton. Not doing enough.

Ran below par last time when eighth over 2170m at Motukarara but his form prior to that run was sound. Great chance to bounce back.

Has been out of the winner's circle for a long while. Missed out two starts back then was a distant sixth last start over 2600m at Addington. Expecting a much better run this time.

8-11 Cromwell 23Feb24 1800SS $11,790 WITH COND. J B Patterson $32, btn 45.1m, wnr Majesdix , 2:07.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke near the 250m, losing ground.

Continued a long run without winning when fifth at Addington over 2600m last time out. Expecting a better run this time.

Is better than her recent form suggests, most recently finishing seventh at Motukarara over 2170m, beaten 20 metres. Won two on end prior to that. Can make amends.

7-11 Rangiora 03Mar24 2000SS $11,299 WITH COND. P J Wakelin $17, btn 13.5m, wnr Downtown Orlando , 2:37.10 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Over-raced early.

Struggling to find form and has been out of the winners' list at her last 26 runs. Last start finished seventh over 2000m at Rangiora. Cannot enthuse.

Easily accounted for last time when 100 metres from the winner in ninth over 2700m at Ascot Park. Facing a tough assignment this time around.
