Had four recent trials to get fit for this. Last trial Was second in an Avondale barrier trial over 1000m February 17. Looks all set for a bright return.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when in a small field at Te Rapa on December 13 over 1100m, on a slow track; 1.3 len behind Dashing Dixie with 55kg at $9.50. Can play a major role.

Jumped at long odds at debut, 4th of 7 at this track on February 6 over 1000m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Pinafore carrying 55kg at $28.80. Expect her to run well.

Third-up today. Resuming ran last in a small field at Matamata in the G2 Matamata Brdrs on February 14 over 1200m, on heavy track; 22 len behind Lara Antipova carrying 56.5kg at $25.60. Second run from a spell 9th of 11 at Pukekohe on February 25 over 1100m, slow going 6 len behind Belle Rebelle with 55.5kg at $35.10. Might need more racing.

At debut, in a small field at Wanganui on February 22 over 1200m, on a slow track; 3 len behind So Fear with 54kg at $9. Likely improver with strong claims.

Filly by St Mark's Basilica making her first appearance. Runner-up in a Ellerslie trial over 800m on February 10. Ready for a bright start.

At debut, second last of 7 at this track on February 6 over 1000m, slow going 8 len behind Pinafore with 53kg at $16.90. Can't see her playing a major role.

First starter by Vanbrugh - Waitangi Zena. Hasn't set the track alight with her trials leading into today's race. Profiles well and a bold run is expected.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, eased back early on 7th of 9 at Ellerslie on February 21 over 1100m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Summer Schemer with 55.5kg at $86.80. Happy to watch.
