Non-competitive and never gave backers any joy 7.2L at Aquis Park Gold Coast Poly Cl2 over 1200m Synthetic. Nice ride to sit behind the leaders but found little when let go finishing sixth 5.5L at Gatton 0 - 55 over 1400m Soft 6.

Hard ridden to make ground but ultimately settled too far back 3.8L at Aquis Park Gold Coast Poly Bm55 over 1050m Synthetic. Ran on ok late but gave leaders a big head start 5.8L at Coffs Harbour Bm50 over 1012m.

Steward's Comments: Rounding the home turn became held up on heels and was unable to be fully tested until passing the 100m. Apprentice counselled by Stewards and advised that her mount would have been better served had she shown greater patience at the entrance to the straight to ascertain where a run was available for her mount rather than commit to improving along the fence as early as she did.

Went forward to challenge, weakening noticeably in the straight 15.6L at Nowra Bm58 over 1400m. Poised to bounce at the 400m however didn't have a lot left to give 5.5L at Queanbeyan Bm58 over 1200m.
