Gelding back from a spell of nine months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last campaign sixth of 12 at Woodville November 2 over 1600m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Cocobill carrying 57kg at $8.30. When resuming last campaign second in a small field at Hawera August 23 over 1400m, in the wet; 0.8 len behind Lovehelen with 55.5kg at $7.10. Expected to feature in the finish.

Comes here off a 29-day let-up. Last start 10th of 13 at Waverley on July 4 over 1200m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Great Escape with 58kg at $25.40. The start before that raced on the pace before fading 8th of 10 at Trentham on June 10 over 1400m, on rain affected going; 3 len behind Kosta carrying 56kg at $7.20. Has ability and is expected to do much better.

Racing well recently. At the latest run made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 11 at New Plymouth Raceway on July 18 over 1400m, on a wet track; 2.5 len behind Came True with 58.5kg at $12.40. The start before that won by 1.2 len at Waverley July 4 over 1400m on a soft track defeating Reconvene with 58.5kg at $4.30. Key runner and should be in the finish.

Second-up. First-up after 10 months ran second last of 7 at Awapuni Synthetic on July 17 over 1400m, 7 len behind Dancing Shadow carrying 54kg at $32.30. Previously second-up 5th of 13 at Trentham on June 7 2025 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 8 len behind Bozo with 53.5kg at $20.70. Expecting him to kick on with that first run out of the way.

Third-up today. First-up won by 1.5 len at Pukekohe June 24 over 1200m on a heavy track defeating Sombr carrying 51.5kg at $7.70. Last start 3rd in a small field at Avondale on July 15 over 1200m, on a wet track; 6 len behind Gin And Bare It with 52.5kg at $11. Shapes up nicely.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming sat on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 11 at Trentham on July 2 over 1400m, on heavy track; 15 len behind My Ferrari carrying 58.5kg at $9. Last start 6th of 14 at Waverley on July 24 over 1650m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Bruno with 57.5kg at $10.40. Better than recent form suggests and he can improve sharply.

Last start 9th of 13 at Te Aroha on July 26 over 1400m, on heavy track; 11 len behind Koro's Princess carrying 56kg at $14.50. The run before that 2nd in a small field at Tauranga on July 12 over 1200m, on heavy track; 0.8 len behind Smart Tip with 55.5kg at $5.20. Looking to others.

Last start ran second last of 10 at Hawera on July 11 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 11 len behind Amazing Son with 54.5kg at $7.20. The race before that 5th of 13 at Waverley on July 4 over 1200m, slow going 4 len behind Great Escape with 54.5kg at $21.60. Doesn’t appeal.
