Failed to raise backers' hopes when resuming last start, finishing 11th at Motukarara over 2170m and beaten 190 metres. Will be a different proposition this time.

8-9 Addington 06Apr25 2600SS $11,844 NON-WINNERS 3U John Versteeg $109, btn 22.4m, wnr Aldebaran Redwood , 2:09.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

First up since finishing ninth over 2170m at Motukarara five months ago. Sure to be thereabouts.

Has been racing consistently at her last few starts, most recently when fifth over 2400m at Mt Harding. Likely to measure up.

99-9 Oamaru 11Dec24 2000SS $11,370 NON-WINNERS 3U Michael Heenan $44, btn 267.3m, wnr Niamh , 2:22.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Checked by a breaking runner shortly after the start with driver M Heenan being dislodged from the sulky.

Finished 17 metres back in seventh at his latest outing over 2600m at this track. This looks a suitable assignment.

Has been down the track since a minor placing at Oamaru three runs back, most recently finishing seventh at Mt Harding over 2400m. Better than recent form suggests; great chance to bounce back.

13-15 Mt Harding 13Apr25 2400SS $13,156 NON-WINNERS 3U Jonny Cox $68, btn 145.0m, wnr Lottie's Moment , 2:11.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke after 100m losing ground. Hampered by a breaking runner near the 1100m. Weakened final bend.

Wasn't all that far away when sixth at her first run back from a spell over 2600m at this track last start. Watch for a big spike in form.
