Has been out of the winner's circle for a long while. Missed out two starts back then was a distant 12th last time out over 1980m at Addington. Must do a lot more.

4-10 Phar Lap Raceway 23Nov24 2600SS $24,125 R55 & FASTER DISCRETIONARY 3U Gerard O'reilly $26, btn 6.2m, wnr Rakero Rocket , 2:04.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke at the start and shifted up the track hampering outside runners losing ground.

Finished third at Addington two starts back then missed the frame but wasn't far away last time out over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. Sure to be in the mix.

7-13 Addington 15Nov24 1980MS $30,525 R52 TO R61 3U Matthew Williamson $66, btn 28.6m, wnr Borrisokane , 1:57.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide early. Forced to race four wide from the 900m.

Easily accounted for last time when 30 metres from the winner in seventh over 1980m at Addington. This looks a far sterner test.

Safely held last time when 23 metres from the winner in eighth over 2000m at this track. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

3-14 Motukarara 24Nov24 2000MS $11,903 R50 TO R57 JUN.DRV 4U H J Orange $7, btn 10.0m, wnr Tokyo Rose , 2:01.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide early. Locked wheels briefly near 800m with Wuhan.

Improved to finish third over 2000m at this track most recently on the back of a mediocre 12th at Addington the run prior. Sure to play a major role.

11-13 Addington 12Nov24 1980MS $30,525 R59 TO R70 3U Robert Butt $11, btn 30.8m, wnr Rakero Rocket , 1:55.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was in the money at Addington two back then disappointed last time when 11th over 1980m at Addington. Sure to go well.

7-8 Kaikoura 04Nov24 1900MS $16,275 R51 TO R65, R66 TO R70 WITH CO Robert Butt $13, btn 18.4m, wnr Spirit Of Anarchy , 1:56.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Easily accounted for last time when 18 metres from the winner in seventh over 1900m at Kaikoura. This looks a far sterner test.

2-10 Phar Lap Raceway 23Nov24 2600SS $24,125 R55 & FASTER DISCRETIONARY 3U Colin Defilippi $17, btn 1.4m, wnr Rakero Rocket , 2:04.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Improved to finish second over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway last time out on the back of a mediocre ninth at Addington the run prior. Winning prospects.

1-8 Phar Lap Raceway 23Nov24 2600SS $11,625 R40 TO R54 SPECIAL HANDICAP 3U John R Dunn $6, won by 2nd Tempo Warrior , 2:03.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished third at Oamaru Raceway two starts back then improved to score last start over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway by 3.5 metres. Prefer others on this occasion.

Was easily accounted for from an awkward draw last start at Addington over 1980m, beaten 21 metres into 11th. Closer draw this time so worth another chance.

4-13 Addington 12Nov24 1980MS $30,525 R53 TO R58, R59 WITH COND. 3U Matthew Williamson $114, btn 19.2m, wnr Borrisokane , 1:55.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Failed to feature again last start when fourth over 1980m at Addington, beaten 19 metres. Hard to have.

Not a threat last start when eighth over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway, beaten 14 metres. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

6-10 Phar Lap Raceway 23Nov24 2600SS $24,125 R55 & FASTER DISCRETIONARY 3U John R Dunn $23, btn 11.1m, wnr Rakero Rocket , 2:04.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered by a breaking runner at the start.

Continued a long run without winning when sixth at Phar Lap Raceway over 2600m last time out. Capable of a better showing.

3-10 Phar Lap Raceway 23Nov24 2600SS $24,125 R55 & FASTER DISCRETIONARY 3U R E Cameron $18, btn 3.5m, wnr Rakero Rocket , 2:04.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered shortly after the start by a breaking runner.

Turned in a solid run when resuming over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway last start, finishing third and beaten 3.5 metres. Bold showing expected again.

Has struggled to recapture form, the latest effort a 12th over 2400m at Kaikoura. This looks too tough.

Missed the placings last start but was only beaten 8 metres when fifth over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. Not keen.

3-13 Addington 12Nov24 1980MS $30,525 R59 TO R70 3U Jonny Cox $6, btn 14.6m, wnr Rakero Rocket , 1:55.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)
