Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, eased back early on 5th of 7 at Woodville on November 2 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Empirical with 57.5kg at $3.30. Second-up 4th of 14 at Tauranga on December 12 over 1500m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Tagalomu with 57kg at $12.20. Watch for him rattling home once again.

At debut, 8th of 11 at this track on December 26 over 1600m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Dark And Dusty carrying 54kg at $11.70. Expected to do far better this time. Well placed this line-up and should feature.

At the latest run 5th of 10 at this track on December 19 over 2100m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Vickezzmargaux with 54.5kg at $7.70. The race before that sat on the pace when 3rd of 11 at Tauherenikau on December 10 over 2200m, slow going 5.5 len behind Shockiff with 56.5kg at $7.50. Worth following up.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 3rd of 10 at this track on December 19 over 2100m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Vickezzmargaux carrying 56.5kg at $7.60. Before that made some head-way from midfield; 4th of 14 at Wanganui on November 29 over 2040m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Platinum Goddess with 56.5kg at $7.10. Won't be far away with a repeat of that latest performance.

At the latest run raced on speed throughout when 3rd of 8 at New Plymouth Raceway on December 31 over 2000m, in the wet; 9 len behind French Thinker with 56.5kg at $11.60. Before that 5th of 8 at New Plymouth Raceway on November 21 over 2000m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Black Sea carrying 56.5kg at $27. Fair effort on that occasion but this looks beyond her reach.

Comes here off a 34-day let-up. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 12 at Trentham on December 6 over 1600m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Girl Talk carrying 55kg at $21.80. The start before that 4th of 11 at Wanganui on November 29 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.3 len behind Croix De Guerre carrying 56.5kg at $14.50. Will need plenty of improvement to feature.

Last start rolled along in front then was edged out late 3rd of 8 at New Plymouth Raceway on December 27 over 1800m, slow going 1.0 len behind Los Salsero carrying 54.5kg at $7.30. The start before that raced behind the speed prior to fading second last of 12 at Trentham on December 6 over 1600m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Girl Talk with 54kg at $12.10. Sure to be in the mix.
