Was a much better run last time finishing third at Addington over 2600m, beaten 1.4 metres. Heading the right way and is a leading player.

2-8 Phar Lap Raceway 25May25 2600MS $10,230 R35 TO R37 4U Chris Butt $4, btn 1.1m, wnr Heaven , 2:04.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been about the mark lately, most recently finishing 1.1 metres away in second over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. One of the main contenders.

Was safely held last time out in eighth first-up over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway, beaten 45 metres. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Struggling to find form and has been out of the winners' list at his last seven runs. Last start finished fourth over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. This looks tough.

3-8 Phar Lap Raceway 25May25 2600MS $10,230 R35 TO R37 4U Blair Orange $4, btn 1.6m, wnr Heaven , 2:04.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Again missed the placings last time out but was only 4 metres away in fourth over 1980m at Addington. Must do a lot more.

Has raced twice this campaign and failed to fill a top-three spot on either occasion, the latest when sixth over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway, beaten 7 metres. This looks a suitable assignment.

3-8 Addington 14May25 1980MS $7,440 R35 4U Seth Hill $4, btn 1.6m, wnr Didjashoutthebar , 2:01.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Is closing in on a win after placing at two of the last three runs, the latest effort a third at Addington over 1980m, beaten 1.5 metres. Great chance to break through.

Didn't make an impact last time when 12th at Rangiora over 2000m. That run followed a minor placing two runs back at Addington. Can bounce back.
