Showed best work late for fifth but the race was well and truly decided 5.2L at Stawell Mdn-Sw over 1107m. Hardly sighted after a slow start and top effort to grab fifth 3.8L at Ballarat Mdn-Sw over 1100m.

Restrained back to midfield always under the pump to run on 8.6L at Southside Pakenham Mdn-Sw over 1100m Heavy 8. Ridden just off the pace and was unlucky not to have won when second 0.3L at Sale Mdn-Sw over 1400m.

Steward's Comments: Began awkwardly before shifting out abruptly. Then shifted in behind runners where it commenced to race ungenerously in the early and middle stages. Approaching the 600m, when racing ungenerously, laid out and was steadied from heels. Rider reported the filly raced ungenerously in the early and middle stages and as a result failed to respond to his riding when placed under pressure. He added that he had recommended to connections to remove the blinkers and cross-over noseband from the filly's gear. Trainer .

Steward's Comments: Change of tactics. Connections advised it was intended for the filly to be ridden further forward if circumstances permit. Led. Raced keenly and ungenerously in the lead in the early and middle stages. Rider reported that the filly raced keenly and in her opinion, this was detrimental to her performance. A post-race veterinary examination revealed a slower than expected recovery.

Steward's Comments: Stood flat footed and lost ground (3L). Tnr was notified a warning has been placed on filly’s record. Held up from 500m until approaching 200m. Near 100m, when improving, was awkwardly placed close to heels before shifting inside to obtain clear running.

Steward's Comments: Slow to begin. Raced keenly in the early stages, getting its head up on a number of occasions and was allowed to stride around the field to take up a position outside the leader near the 1200m. Near the 300m was brushed.

Steward's Comments: Between the 200m and the 100m was unable to be fully tested when racing in restricted room. Rider reported that his mount, which was having its first race start, would appreciate races over further distance than today’s 1300m. A post-race veterinary examination revealed no abnormalities.

Steward's Comments: Began awkwardly. Tactics queried regarding shifting and racing on the rail near the 700m, RR he had been asked to ride the horse positively if possible. Rdr std that the filly began only fairly and did not muster speed despite being ridden along and ultimately settled towards the rear. Rider exp with the rail position being out 7m he took the option to shift towards the rail and trail a favoured runner. Rider stated he had secured clear running from the 400m and ran on fairly in the straight.
