Most recently 5th of 7 at this track on January 15 over 1200m, 4 len behind Sutherland with 62.5kg at $6.50. The race before that 3rd of 8 at this track on December 18 over 1200m, 2.75 len behind Fully Loaded carrying 62kg at $26. Expected to finish much closer.

Returns from a 40-day let-up. Most recently 7th of 10 at this track on December 20 over 1475m, 3 len behind Amor Fati carrying 57kg at $4.50. The race before that won by 1.3 len at this track December 18 over 1200m defeating Xenophon with 57kg at $4.50. Freshened, back in trip and back in grade. Rates highly on strong record course and distance. Big chance.

Resuming. Only had one start last campaign 8th of 12 at this track on November 11 over 1200m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Silver Tudor carrying 54kg at $26. When resuming last campaign 8th of 10 at Turffontein Inside on May 8 over 1450m, 7 len behind It's Her Way carrying 61kg at $4.80. Unlikely to feature.

First up last campaign seventh of 9 at this track August 30 over 1450m, 6 len behind Laughing William carrying 62.5kg at $6.50. Will need this run.

Returns from a 33-day let-up. Last start 4th of 9 at Turffontein Standside on December 27 over 1000m, 2 len behind Plus Four carrying 53.5kg at $7. The run before that 10th of 13 at Kenilworth on November 22 over 1200m, 5 len behind Pomp It Up carrying 59.5kg at $21. Likely to be attacking the line strongly.

Second-up. Comes off a 42-day let-up. First-up after three months second last of 8 at this track on December 18 over 1200m, 5 len behind Fully Loaded carrying 59kg at $11. Previously second-up 8th of 12 at this track on January 30 over 1200m, 6 len behind Night Bomber with 55.5kg at $7. Unlikely to threaten.

Resuming after a break of four-and-a-half months. Finished off last campaign when last of 10 at Turffontein Inside September 20 over 1600m, 6 len behind Count Huhtikuu carrying 59.5kg at $21. When resuming last campaign third of 11 at Scottsville April 27 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Danube carrying 60kg at $1.90. Hard to recommend.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 4th of 7 at this track on January 15 over 1200m, 4 len behind Sutherland with 59kg at $6. The run before that won by 0.8 len at Turffontein Standside December 16 over 1160m defeating Red Penny with 57kg at $13.50. Not far away last time and this easier. Placed 3/6 course and distance. Expected to go well.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 40 day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 19 at this track on December 20 over 1475m, 2.75 len behind Wayne with 58.5kg at $8.50. The run before that 2nd of 12 at Turffontein Inside on November 27 over 1450m, 1.0 len behind Palace Prince with 52.5kg at $6. Genuine hope on best form.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up 2nd of 12 at Turffontein Standside on December 16 over 1160m, 0.8 len behind Antonio Gaudi with 57kg at $21. Last start ran last in a small field at this track on January 15 over 1450m, 11 len behind I'm A Fireball carrying 54.5kg at $11. Can bounce back.

Most recently 5th of 10 at this track on January 17 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Vanakkam carrying 59kg at $17. The race before that 7th of 9 at Turffontein Standside on December 27 over 1000m, 5 len behind Plus Four with 54kg at $34. Should be right in the finish.

Second-up. First-up after two months 3rd of 10 at this track on January 17 over 1000m, 1.4 len behind Vanakkam carrying 58kg at $41. Previously second-up ran last of 9 at Kenilworth on November 10 over 1400m, 18 len behind Marcus Aurelius carrying 61.5kg at $26. Must improve significantly.

Resuming. Only had one start last campaign favourite; won by 0.8 len at this track October 14 over 1200m defeating Major Arcana carrying 59kg at $1.80. First up last campaign 2nd of 12 at Greyville on May 24 over 1200m, neck behind Soldier Boy with 60kg at $2.10. Promising type off the mark at only run last time in. That was also first try course and distance. Has good upside and expected to take catching fresh.
