Not a threat last start when seventh first-up over 1609m at Mt Harding, beaten 12 metres. Won't find this easy. Not keen.

10-11 Mt Harding 08Sep24 2400SS $10,808 R42 TO R54 DISCRETIONARY 3U Kimberly Butt $22, btn 122.0m, wnr Classie Linc , 2:04.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Weakened from the 400m.

Continued some plain form when a mediocre tenth at Mt Harding over 2400m two weeks ago. Form not up to scratch.

Has raced twice since resuming and failed to threaten on either occasion, the latest when 13th over 2300m at Mt Harding two weeks ago. Others make more appeal.

6-12 Addington 13Sep24 2600MS $15,000 R35 TO R48 3U Ricky May $18, btn 17.6m, wnr Borrisokane , 2:00.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Held up early in the run home.

Had a difficult draw last start and didn't make an impact when sixth at Addington over 2600m, beaten 17 metres. Great chance to bounce back.

1-12 Mt Harding 08Sep24 1609MS $11,000 R39 TO R50 4U Mia Holbrough $8, won by 2nd Kiwi Record , 2:00.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Back in winning form last time out with a 1.4 metres victory over 1609m at Mt Harding. Can go back-to-back.

8-11 Addington 06Sep24 1980MS $15,720 R40 TO R50 Kyle Cameron $42, btn 17.0m, wnr I'm Rockin , 1:57.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been out of the placings at the last couple of starts from tricky draws, the latest when eighth over 1980m at Addington. Certainly up to this and he is a strong winning chance.

9-12 Mt Harding 08Sep24 1609MS $11,000 R39 TO R50 4U John Morrison $6, btn 14.9m, wnr Don Juan , 2:00.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Lay inwards racing into the first bend placing inside runners in restricted room. Over raced middle stages.

Failed to raise backers' hopes when resuming last start, finishing ninth at Mt Harding over 1609m and beaten 14 metres. Winning prospect with that run under the belt.

Easily accounted for last time at the first run of the campaign when 10 metres from the winner in ninth over 2400m at Wyndham Raceway. This looks a far sterner test.

4-12 Mt Harding 08Sep24 1609MS $11,000 R39 TO R50 4U Blair Orange $4, btn 2.4m, wnr Don Juan , 2:00.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Again missed the placings last time out but was only 2.5 metres away in fourth over 1609m at Mt Harding. Watch for a spike in form.

Made significant improvement last start when third at Mt Harding over 2400m, beaten 2.75 metres. Expected to go well again.

6-12 Mt Harding 08Sep24 1609MS $11,000 R39 TO R50 4U Robbie Close $9, btn 7.3m, wnr Don Juan , 2:00.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Had difficulty obtaining clear racing room throughout the run home.

Was resuming last start and turned in a solid performance to finish sixth at Mt Harding over 1609m. Can improve sharply.

Improved to finish third over 1609m at Mt Harding last start following a well-beaten fourth at Rangiora the run prior. Forward performance expected.

9-9 Rangiora 25Aug24 2600SS $9,949 R41 TO R57 DISCRETIONARY HANDI Olivia Thornley $4, btn 122.6m, wnr Fergalicious , 2:00.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke after 100m, losing ground. Over-raced in the parked position through the middle stages. Weakened from the 700m.

Is back from a 28 day freshen-up following a disappointing ninth over 2600m at Rangiora last time when well in the market. Cannot be ruled out.
