Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd of 12 at Ascot Park on January 22 over 1400m, slow going head behind Bonsai Bob carrying 57kg at $2.90. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 12 at Riverton on January 1 over 1600m, 3 len behind Lined Satin with 57kg at $5.20. Has ability and is one of the major players.

Recent form sound. Most recently won by a head at Ascot Park January 22 over 1400m in soft going defeating Monaghan Boy carrying 55kg at $7.20. The start before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 9 at this track on December 21 over 1335m, on heavy track; 2.5 len behind Pull The Pin with 57kg at $14. Ideally placed to make it two on the trot.

At the latest run 4th of 12 at Ascot Park on January 22 over 1400m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Bonsai Bob with 59kg at $10.40. The race before that 5th of 12 at Riverton on January 1 over 1600m, 5 len behind Lined Satin with 59kg at $13.50. Solid top-three chance.

At the latest run ran on from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Ascot Park on January 22 over 1400m, slow going 1.75 len behind Bonsai Bob with 58kg at $19.10. The start before that second last of 12 at Kumara on January 10 over 1150m, slow going 5 len behind El Vaquero with 58.5kg at $19.60. Prepared to risk in this line-up.

Resuming. Finished off last campaign second last of 13 at Wingatui on November 4 over 1600m, 8 len behind Loose Sally carrying 53.5kg at $21.10. First up last campaign 6th of 12 at Ascot Park on April 6 over 1400m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Neptune with 56.5kg at $15.30. Can't enthuse.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 42 day let-up. Most recently won by a neck at this track December 21 over 1335m in heavy going defeating Sympathique carrying 56kg at $4.20. The race before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Ascot Park on December 13 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Flying Dubawi with 54.5kg at $5.10. Capable enough on her day and is one of the major players.

Racing well recently. Returns from a 31-day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 8 at Riverton on January 1 over 1200m, neck behind Sailor Girl carrying 57kg at $9.30. Before that 2nd of 9 at this track on December 21 over 1335m, on heavy track; neck behind Pull The Pin carrying 55kg at $7.10. Thereabouts last time and can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming 11th of 13 at Wingatui on December 26 over 1200m, slow going 11 len behind Trader with 59.5kg at $23.30. Last start 6th of 11 at Wingatui on January 17 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Trader with 58.5kg at $62.40. Can't recommend until improvement is shown.

At the latest run sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 9 at Reefton on January 7 over 1400m, slow going 11 len behind Grand Cru carrying 59kg at $13.30. The run before that raced on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 14 at Ashburton on December 24 over 1400m, slow going 4 len behind My Sharona carrying 59.5kg at $30.10. Form doesn't read well but he is a genuine contender.

Most recently 9th of 12 at Kumara on January 10 over 1150m, slow going 5 len behind El Vaquero with 55kg at $5.60. The race before that ran on from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Omoto on January 4 over 1100m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Thedreamsnotover carrying 54.5kg at $5.30. Sure to be thereabouts.

At the latest run 5th of 11 at Wingatui on January 17 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Trader carrying 55.5kg at $7.30. The run before that did the work up front then tired ran last of 10 at Te Aroha on December 7 over 1300m, 7 len behind Larius Lacus with 54.5kg at $5.30. Encouraging effort last start. Ridden last time by a claiming apprentice, replaced for this assignment by a senior rider.

Last start second last of 12 at Kumara on January 10 over 1810m, on a slow track; 19 len behind Ruffhouse Rosie carrying 56.5kg at $31.80. The start before that came from midfield and won by a head at Kurow December 30 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Student Of War with 56.5kg at $77.20. Disappointing last time and needs to do more.

Dual acceptor. Last start 8th of 11 at Wingatui on January 17 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Trader with 56kg at $15.30. The race before that rolled along in front before being edged out 2nd of 13 at this track on December 21 over 1335m, on rain affected going; 1.75 len behind Cockahoop carrying 55kg at $9.90. Rates highly and can break through.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming 6th of 12 at Cromwell on November 28 over 1220m, slow going 2 len behind Quick Tap with 56kg at $14. Second-up 7th of 13 at Phar Lap Racecourse on December 28 over 1200m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Our Clarry with 56kg at $35.20. Fitter but looking elsewhere.

Dual acceptor. Second run back. First-up after three months 10th of 14 at Riccarton Park on January 14 over 1200m, slow going 8 len behind Pizarro carrying 58kg at $43. Previously second-up 5th of 11 at Riccarton Park Synthetic on June 26 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Phazed with 58.5kg at $4.30. No easier this time and not likely to threaten.

Dual acceptor. Second run back. First-up after nine months eased back early on 6th of 12 at Ascot Park on January 22 over 1400m, slow going 4.5 len behind Bonsai Bob carrying 58kg at $6.20. Previously second-up ran last of 9 at Te Rapa on May 3 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 6 len behind Force Of Nature with 53kg at $20.30. Rates highly and expected to improve sharply.
