Went forward to sit just off the leaders but served up a below par finish 4.5L at Sportsbet Sandown Lakeside F&M Bm70 over 1600m Heavy 9. Traveled forward in the running and laboured when it mattered fourth 11.3L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside F&M Bm70 over 1600m Heavy 10.

Had plenty of ground to make up and did pass some tired horses for fifth 5.8L at Flemington F&M Bm78 over 1600m Soft 6. Never looked a serious threat but did get going late 4.7L at Caulfield Heath F&M Bm74 over 1600m Soft 6.

Keen, wide with cover, travelled well, let down nicely 1.5L at Sandown Hillside F&M Bm74 over 1400m Heavy 9. Forgive, wide no cover the trip 7.8L at Flemington Mares Bm78 over 1410m. Maps well, hard fit and suited rising in trip.

Had right run and won easily before going out for a break 1.3L at Sandown Lakeside F&M Bm74 over 2100m Soft 5. No public jumpouts but a consistent mare who will relish this trip fresh, big claims.

Found one better over the concluding stages after going forward 0.8L at Traralgon Trar Cup over 1900m Heavy 9. Disappointing performance when never got warm 6.6L at Sportsbet Sandown Lakeside Bm66 over 2100m.

Sat up on the pace and had chance to win weakening into third 3L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside F&M Bm74 over 1400m Heavy 9. Hit the line hard into third and did look like a winning chance but was edged out 8.3L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside F&M Bm70 over 1600m Heavy 10.

Beaten convincingly by rivals when never looked a serious threat 8L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside Bm70 Hcp over 1800m. Couldn't quicken when asked for the effort after positioning worse than midfield 10L at Sportsbet Sandown Lakeside Bm66 over 1400m Soft 7.

Back the fence, got out to middle of track, even home 3.3L at Seymour Bm62 over 1600m Heavy 9. Great late in testing conditions, big gap to third 1.8L at Sandown Hillside F&M Bm70 over 1600m Heavy 10. Looks well placed, take beating.

Sent forward and gave backers a sight before weakening into fifth 1.7L at Flemington 3Yf Hcp over 1400m Soft 6. Failed to improve position from behind the leaders throughout, fifth 1.4L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside 3Yf Bm70 over 1600m Heavy 10.

Toyed with rivals once found the front in what was a quality winning performance 3.3L at Picklebet Park Wodonga 0 - 56 over 1400m Heavy 9. Sat behind the leaders and battled the race out nicely for fourth 3.1L at Seymour Bm62 over 1600m Soft 7.
