Missed the placings again last start, beaten 25 metres when fifth over 1980m at Addington. Capable of a better showing.

2-9 Addington 29Apr26 1980MS $7,580 R35 TO R40 5U Carter Dalgety $3, btn 2.4m, wnr Silverlinings , 2:00.60 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was beaten 2.5 metres into second last start over 1980m at Addington. That was his second placing, alongside a win, from the past five starts. Has a nice draw and expected to figure prominently again.

9-11 Addington 08May26 2600SS $17,685 R35 TO R45 3U Olivia Thornley btn 101.3m, wnr Royal Gypsy , 2:04.70 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been out of the winner's circle for a long while. Missed out two starts back then was a distant ninth last start over 2600m at Addington. Can make amends.

6-11 Addington 24Apr26 1980MS $16,703 R35 TO R40 3U Riley Harrison $5, btn 18.9m, wnr He's My Creation , 2:00.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke late in the score up hampering a trailing runner losing considerable ground.

Placed two runs ago then finished sixth last time over 1980m at Addington. Among the chances on best performances.

3-10 Central Southland Raceway 03May26 2400SS $11,580 R35 TO R50 Denis O'connell $18, btn 9.5m, wnr He Aint Fakin , 2:01.80 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Is closing in on a win after finishing in the placings at his past two starts, the latest at Central Southland Raceway over 2400m, beaten 9 metres. Among the top chances on recent form.

8-10 Rangiora 03May26 2600SS $10,615 R40 TO R45 3U Sheree Tomlinson $17, btn 65.1m, wnr Royal Del , 2:03.20 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered by a breaking runner near the 1000m and forced wider on the track. Weakened leaving the final bend.

Comes here off a last-start eighth over 2600m at Rangiora, beaten 65 metres. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

1-11 Addington 24Apr26 1980MS $16,703 R35 TO R40 3U Sam Thornley $2, won by 2nd Valyrian , 2:00.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide early.

Registered a minor placing two starts back then a win two-and-a-half weeks ago by 3 metres over 1980m at Addington. Looks hard to beat again.
