The start before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at Taupo on February 22 over 1100m, 1.3 len behind Party Time carrying 55.5kg at $3.10. Working up to a win. Key runner.

On debut second in a small field at Tauranga July 6 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 2 len behind Eligius with 56.5kg at $3.70. Looks all set for a effective return.

Gelding by Swiss Ace making his first appearance. Trialled on February 10 at Ellerslie over 1100m and finished fifth. Prefer to see under race conditions.

Three-year-old gelding (Deep Field - Sorpesee) who was bought for NZD $ 550,000 (NZB 2024 Ready 2 Run Sale). He has four recent trials prior to his debut today. Won his most recent trial at Ellerslie over 1100m on March 10. Keep safe.

Gelding by Rageese making his first race start. Recent trial form has been pretty solid. Ran 3rd in a Taupo trial over 900m on March 17. Expected to be in the finish.

Gelding by Redwood making his first appearance. Runner-up in a Ellerslie trial over 800m on March 10. Looks one of the chances despite a tricky barrier.

Mare back from a spell of six months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last campaign fourth of 10 at Cambridge Synthetic September 24 over 1300m, 5.5 len behind Happy Youmzain carrying 55.5kg at $25.90. Previously first up; eighth of 10 at Hawera August 23 over 1200m, on heavy track; 9 len behind Brassey Miss carrying 55.5kg at $5.90. Sure to be thereabouts.
