Could only hold onto fifth despite looking to have every chance behind the speed 3.2L at Tamworth Tamw Cup over 1400m. Retired 10L Luskinstar Listed over 1300m Soft 5. Should find this easier.

Led, challenged but proved the better horse on the day to win at Rosehill Gardens over 1100m. Under extreme pressure to keep pace with the front-runners at Royal Randwick. Racing well and gets suitable conditions. Placed 4:5 at the trip.

Held position strongly to the line but was never a serious threat 2.1L at Aquis Park Gold Coast Military Rosefm over 1100m. Posted wide, pushed on, felt pinch late 3.1L at Eagle Farm Hcp over 1000m. Has won second-up previously.

Slow out back half, made late ground but no threat Warra Group 3. Under pressure in the lead and had to pull out all stops to hold sixth at Royal Randwick over 1000m. Can win first-up. A genuine threat for the new stable.

Led and kicked strongly in the lane for the victory 0.2L at Eagle Farm Bm70 over 1000m Soft 6. Over raced on speed, tank empty passing 200m mark 6L at Eagle Farm Hcp over 1000m. Proven here at this track/distance.

Came with a burst to overhaul rivals to win at Royal Randwick over 1000m. Sat behind the leaders and was game in defeat when finishing third 1.8L at Royal Randwick. If he races here, is ready to peak and well suited at the distance.

Ridden just off the speed and produced best late to finish runner-up at Ipswich. Got a long way back in transit but produced a fast finish for second at Eagle Farm over 1000m. Should relish conditions. Top chance.
