Last start won by 2.5 m as favourite (Fr2) at Cambridge Raceway (2:01.80) beating Cyamate in 4yo+ on November 5 at $2.20. Should get all the favours from this draw. Expected to feature in the finish again.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 5th (Fr2) over 2200m at this track beaten 6 m by The Jolly Roger (2:41.90) in 3yo+ on November 7 at $2.80. At the previous start 5th (Sr1) over 2200m at this track beaten 5 m by Confederate (2:40.30) in 3yo+ on October 31 at $44.70. Heading the right way and should play a big role.

4-12 Alexandra Park 31Oct25 2200MS $35,000 R39 TO R55 3U Matthew White $5, btn 4.3m, wnr Confederate , 1:57.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

5-8 Cambridge Raceway 14Nov25 2200MS $15,810 R50 4U M Ranger $15, btn 25.7m, wnr Muchacho , 1:58.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke in the score up and was back from position at dispatch.

Comes here second-up after a week. Lacklustre first-up performance when 5th (Fr1) over 2200m at Cambridge Raceway, beaten 25 m by Muchacho (2:42.40) in 4yo+ on November 14 at $14.70. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

5-10 Cambridge Raceway 05Nov25 2200MS $15,000 R43 TO R48 4U G Minnucci $3, btn 37.8m, wnr Mick Konstantin , 1:56.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide early before being restrained to the rear. Held up rounding the final turn.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr5) over 2200m at Cambridge Raceway, beaten 40 m by Mick Konstantin (2:39.30) in 4yo+ on November 5 at $3.40. Showed ability the race before when she won by 1.1 m as favourite (Sr1) at this track (2:40.80) beating Melody Banner in 4yo+ on October 24 at $3.20. Major player on best form.

8-10 Cambridge Raceway 05Nov25 2200MS $15,000 R43 TO R48 4U M E A Djuse $32, btn 67.2m, wnr Mick Konstantin , 1:56.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Well-beaten 16 days ago at Cambridge Raceway over 2200m, before that 5th (Fr5) over 2200m at this track, beaten 19 m by Arden's Memory (2:40.80) in 4yo+ on October 24 at $52.20. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

1-10 Cambridge Raceway 05Nov25 2200MS $15,000 R43 TO R48 4U J A Macdonald $2, won by 2nd Upstage , 1:56.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Hard to fault of late. Last start won a big 13 m win as favourite (Fr1) at Cambridge Raceway (2:39.30) beating Upstage in 4yo+ on November 5 at $1.80. Top chance based on the latest effort.
