Races ORP Riccarton Park - NZ

Resuming after four-and-a-half months in the paddock. Finished off last campaign fifth of 14 at Riccarton Park Synthetic May 15 over 1600m, 3 len behind Avoriaz with 58.5kg at $8.60. When resuming last campaign fourth of 14 at Riccarton Park Synthetic May 1 over 1400m, 0.9 len behind Porcia Catonis with 58.5kg at $37.70. Sure to be ready to run well.

Resuming from a lengthy break. Only one run when 10th of 13 at this track on November 9 over 1200m, slow going 6 len behind Helldancer with 58.5kg at $42.10. Will improve on whatever he does in this.

Racing well recently. Most recently sat on the pace when 2nd of 9 at Riccarton Park Synthetic on September 11 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Honoka with 53.5kg at $6.60. Before that 2nd of 8 at Riccarton Park Synthetic on August 27 over 1600m, nose behind Gee Force with 53.5kg at $6.80. Expected to be in the finish again.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up 2nd of 10 at Oamaru on August 15 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Enterprise carrying 56.5kg at $8.10. Last start 9th of 14 at Phar Lap Racecourse on September 7 over 1200m, 7 len behind Saxon Legend with 56.5kg at $8.90. Each way player on best form.

Second run back. First-up after five months 4th of 14 at Phar Lap Racecourse on September 7 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Saxon Legend carrying 56.5kg at $7.60. Previously second-up 7th of 10 at this track on March 5 over 1200m, on heavy track; 4.5 len behind Hooray For Harry with 56kg at $8.60. Strips fitter and expected to feature.

Second run back. First-up after six months rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 8 at Wingatui on September 5 over 1600m, in the wet; 4 len behind Descaro with 56.5kg at $11.60. Previously second-up second last of 14 at Wingatui on March 16 over 1600m, slow going 9 len behind Wary carrying 53kg at $36.30. Fair effort on that occasion but this looks beyond her reach.

Most recently 4th of 12 at this track on September 13 over 1200m, slow going 2.75 len behind War Of Silence carrying 56.5kg at $23.20. Before that second last of 11 at Cambridge Synthetic on July 23 over 1550m, 16 len behind Delz Abeel with 53kg at $41.90. Likely to hold the good form and can figure in the top 4 again.

Was at very long odds at debut, ran last of 12 at this track on September 13 over 1200m, on a slow track; 24 len behind War Of Silence with 56.5kg at $59.50. Doubt she will trouble these.

Third race start. Promising on debut 2nd of 8 at Wingatui on March 1 over 1100m, 1.5 len behind Queen's Evidence carrying 57kg at $4.30. Returned from break 4th in a small field at Phar Lap Racecourse on September 7 over 1200m, 3 len behind Alottago carrying 57.5kg at $3.40. Plenty of improvement to come.

At debut, 3rd of 12 at this track on September 13 over 1200m, slow going 2 len behind War Of Silence with 56kg at $6.60. Better for that hit-out and another big run looks on the cards.

At debut, ran last of 7 at Wingatui on September 5 over 1200m, on a wet track; 14 len behind The Cool One carrying 56kg at $13.60. Drawn the carpark and likely to struggle.

Dual acceptor. Third-up today. Resuming sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 8 at this track on August 30 over 1000m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Belle Du Monde with 54kg at $4.90. Last start 5th of 12 at this track in the LR Canterbury Belle Stakes on September 13 over 1200m, slow going 4 len behind Miss Starlight carrying 56.5kg at $12.10. Well placed. Certainly worth another chance.
