8-14 Central Southland Raceway 18Sep25 2400MS $10,350 R35 Jonny Cox $16, btn 6.8m, wnr Sargent Best , 2:02.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been struggling of late, most recently finishing eighth over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway. Draws the pegs and can bounce back.

6-11 Gore Raceway 28Sep25 1700MS $9,825 R35 FM 3U Terry Chmiel $17, btn 8.9m, wnr Sherwood Maggie , 1:58.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Continued a long run without winning when sixth at Gore Raceway over 1700m last time out. Deserves another chance.

7-13 Wyndham Raceway 02Oct25 2400MS $10,175 R35 TO R37 3U Matthew Williamson $18, btn 13.0m, wnr Tuneinsportsfans , 1:59.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished third two starts back at Gore Raceway then missed the frame last time out over 2400m at Wyndham Raceway. Winning prospects.

11-13 Wyndham Raceway 02Oct25 2400MS $10,175 R35 TO R37 3U Kirk Larsen $32, btn 27.0m, wnr Tuneinsportsfans , 1:59.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Struggling to find form and has been out of the winners' list at his last 55 runs. Last start finished 11th over 2400m at Wyndham Raceway. Not doing enough.

9-13 Wyndham Raceway 02Oct25 2400MS $10,175 R35 TO R37 3U Brent Barclay $20, btn 14.6m, wnr Tuneinsportsfans , 1:59.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Had a tough draw last time and was safely held when ninth at Wyndham Raceway over 2400m, beaten 14 metres. Strong contender on his best form.

9-14 Ascot Park Raceway 10Aug25 2200MS $15,525 WITH COND. 3U Peter Hunter $59, btn 28.6m, wnr She's Crunchy , 1:59.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide through the early and middle stages.

Won't find this as tough as last start when beaten 30 metres over 2200m at this track. This looks a nice assignment.

12-13 Wyndham Raceway 02Oct25 2400MS $10,175 R35 TO R37 3U Nathan Williamson $28, btn 32.4m, wnr Tuneinsportsfans , 1:59.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was plain when 30 metres away in 12th most recently at his first run back from a break over 2400m at Wyndham Raceway. Has the job ahead against this lot.

11-11 Gore Raceway 28Sep25 1700MS $9,825 R35 FM 3U Andrew Armour $7, btn 32.1m, wnr Sherwood Maggie , 1:58.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Weakened final bend.

Was safely held last time out in 11th over 1700m at Gore Raceway, beaten 30 metres. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

4-11 Gore Raceway 28Sep25 1700MS $9,825 R35 FM 3U Kerryn Tomlinson $14, btn 4.1m, wnr Sherwood Maggie , 1:58.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Struggling to find form and has been out of the winners' list at her last 13 runs. Last start finished fourth over 1700m at Gore Raceway. One to consider as her best is good enough.

5-11 Gore Raceway 28Sep25 1700MS $9,825 R35 FM 3U Brent Barclay $13, btn 7.6m, wnr Sherwood Maggie , 1:58.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been out of the winner's circle for a long while but wasn't beaten all that far when fifth last time out over 1700m at Gore Raceway. Coming good it seems so worth following up.
