Resumes. Finished off last preparation when last of 15 at Ellerslie November 4 over 1600m, soft track; 11 len behind Toruk Makto with 58.5kg at $47.70. First up last campaign ninth of 11 at Cambridge Synthetic July 10 over 1300m, 7 len behind Shamel Express carrying 56kg at $17.90. Among the main contenders.

At the latest run raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 10 at Waverley on March 18 over 1650m, 8 len behind Belle's Charm carrying 58.5kg at $42.50. The start before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 9th of 14 at Trentham on March 1 over 1600m, slow going 6 len behind Summit Up carrying 58.5kg at $96.90. Not among the chances.

Since last run he has trialed at Foxton over 1000m on 2/4/2026; Last outing 7th of 14 at this track on February 8 over 1600m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Jacobite Rising carrying 56.5kg at $10.80. Before that ran last of 11 at Trentham January 17 over 1400m, soft track; 7 len behind Hoorah Henry carrying 55kg at $23.70. Winning hope.

Second-up. First-up after three months eased back early on 6th of 10 at Tauherenikau on March 22 over 1400m, slow going 3.5 len behind The Explosive carrying 58.5kg at $30.90. Previously second-up 11th of 14 at Tauherenikau on November 1 over 1600m, slow going 8 len behind Legacy with 56.5kg at $24.80. Looking elsewhere for the winner.

Was well-supported at debut, 6th of 12 at Waverley on March 18 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Sant Maurici carrying 58kg at $3.70. Battled home well on debut and looks a capable type.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old gelding by Time Test out of Florence O'reilly. At the most recent trial finished fourth at Foxton over 1000m. Tough assignment.

First starter by Circus Maximus out of Lady Blue. Has a total of two trials prior to his debut today. Watch for any market confidence.

Second run back. First-up after three months 2nd of 7 at Hawera on March 25 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Portland with 57.5kg at $3.80. Previously second-up 7th of 9 at Waverley on October 19 over 1400m, slow going 5.5 len behind Aramaki with 56.5kg at $33.70. Top hope.

At debut, sat on speed throughout when 2nd of 8 at Waverley on March 18 over 1400m, 0.6 len behind Carter John with 56.5kg at $6.20. Better gate and can open her account.

At debut, 2nd of 8 at Hawera on March 25 over 1200m, 1.4 len behind Marie Antoinette carrying 56.5kg at $12.90. Can break through this time.

Last start eased back early on 6th of 8 at Waverley on March 18 over 1400m, 7 len behind Carter John carrying 54.5kg at $49.30. Before that ran on strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 8 at Trentham on March 1 over 1200m, slow going 2.75 len behind Furiosa carrying 54.5kg at $76. Hard to see her winning this with form like that.

Second run back. Comes off a 48-day let-up. First-up after seven months 4th of 9 at Wanganui on February 22 over 1360m, slow going 3.5 len behind Silent Applause carrying 54.5kg at $17.20. Previously second-up 6th of 8 at Awapuni Synthetic on August 3 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Sunshine Ale with 54.5kg at $10.60. Rates highly and can do much better this time.

At debut, couldn't go on with it; ran last of 9 at Wanganui on February 22 over 1360m, on a slow track; 22 len behind Silent Applause with 55.5kg at $11. Has upside and may pay to follow up.

Buddy Lammas trained three-year-old filly lining up for first race start. Looked good in a recent trial win. Wide barrier will make her chances harder. Trained on the track and should be primed to run well despite a difficult gate.

Last start 7th of 12 at Waverley on March 18 over 1200m, 2 len behind Sant Maurici with 56.5kg at $5.80. The start before that 2nd of 11 at Hawera on February 27 over 1200m, 0.4 len behind Ledhaven Cassie carrying 56.5kg at $10.90. Can improve on the latest effort and is a key runner.

Sue Thompson & Mick Brown trained four-year-old entire lining up for first race start. Recent trial winner at Foxton. Wide barrier will make his chances harder. Any market support will add to the confidence.

Five-year-old gelding (Wrote - Impact) has trialled on four occasions leading into today's race. Was third in a Taupo barrier trial over 900m on March 17. Happy to risk without a significant market move.

Most recently got back early 8th of 10 at Tauherenikau on March 22 over 1400m, slow going 4.5 len behind The Explosive carrying 58.5kg at $22.80. The run before that 6th of 9 at Tauherenikau on March 5 over 1400m, slow going 1.75 len behind Autumn Queen carrying 58.5kg at $24.70. Hard to see him turning it around enough to feature here.
