Second run back. First-up after eight months eased back early on 6th of 11 at Waverley on April 10 over 1650m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Fourty Eight with 66kg at $25.90. Previously second-up 3rd of 9 at Cambridge Synthetic Rating 59 on June 4 over 2000m, 1.5 len behind Just A Karin with 57kg at $30.10. Didn't do enough first up to raise hopes.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming ran last of 11 at Hawera on March 25 over 1200m, 12 len behind London carrying 57.5kg at $37.50. Second-up held ground to the line 3rd of 14 at Avondale on April 8 over 1600m, in the wet; 1.75 len behind Blesstas carrying 59kg at $61.90. May need one more.

Most recently 9th of 11 at Te Rapa on April 17 over 2400m, on a wet track; 9 len behind Squire carrying 58.5kg at $11.20. The race before that 6th of 10 at Trentham on March 21 over 2100m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Helluvah Return with 58.5kg at $8.10. Finds a nice race this time and a return to the winners' list is on the cards.

At the latest run raced on the pace before fading 11th of 14 at Avondale on April 8 over 1600m, in the wet; 8 len behind Blesstas carrying 58kg at $7.20. The start before that led to the turn then faded 8th of 11 at Te Aroha on March 6 over 1600m, slow going 2.5 len behind Victorious Warrior carrying 58kg at $11. Nicely placed and can improve.

Second run back. First-up after seven months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 10 at Matamata on April 15 over 1600m, on heavy track; 13 len behind Justice carrying 67.5kg at $32.50. Previously second-up 7th of 14 at Matamata on June 15 over 1600m, on a wet track; 14 len behind Fastdeeldun with 58.5kg at $55.10. Can't see him turning things around.

Comes here off a 52-day let-up. Last start sat on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 7 at Te Aroha on March 6 over 2200m, slow going 9 len behind Barcelona with 56.5kg at $10.40. The start before that couldn't go on with it; ran last of 10 at Ruakaka on January 6 over 2100m, slow going 18 len behind The Trendsetter carrying 56.5kg at $6.20. Unlikely to threaten.

Last start 3rd of 12 at Pukekohe on April 1 over 2100m, on a wet track; 2.75 len behind Elton Rocks with 58kg at $6.80. The run before that from last on the turn 6th of 11 at Pukekohe on March 13 over 2100m, slow going 3.5 len behind Astarte carrying 54.5kg at $11.90. Worth including.

The race before that 4th of 10 at Waverley on March 18 over 2200m, 0.9 len behind Maryrose with 56kg at $6.90. Hard to beat on her best form.

Previously second-up 2nd of 7 at Te Rapa on May 24 over 3900m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Nedwin carrying 66kg at $28.50. Can't recommend until he shows something more.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 2nd of 7 at Hawera on April 17 over 2100m, on a wet track; 3.5 len behind Pile Driver with 62kg at $5.30. Before that 4th of 14 at Avondale on April 8 over 1600m, in the wet; 2.25 len behind Blesstas carrying 54.5kg at $19.10. Among the chances on her best form.

Capable on her day and is a top-three hope.
