At the latest run 5th of 14 in a Mdn-Sw at Seymour on August 7 over 1400m, slow going 2.25 len behind Night Guard with 59.5kg at $14. The run before that 11th of 13 in a Mdn-Sw at Sale on June 28 over 1411m, on heavy track; 14 len behind Laura Eliza carrying 59.5kg at $20. Likely to find this out of reach.

Gelding by Reward For Effort facing the starter for the first time. Fitter for a jump-out on July 23 at Kerang when finished fifth. Difficult gate so prepared to give him this run.

Third race start. First start 7th of 10 in a Mdn at Newcastle on February 28 over 1300m, slow going 4.5 len behind No No Yes carrying 59kg at $5. Returned from break 3rd of 14 in a Mdn-Sw at Seymour on August 7 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Misty Whisper with 59.5kg at $12. Fitter and a strong chance.

At debut, 8th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at this track on July 30 over 1000m, on a slow track; 8 len behind Somers Green with 59.5kg at $14. Prefer to see again.

Second run back. First-up after five months crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 5th of 14 in a Mdn-Sw at Seymour on August 7 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Misty Whisper with 59.5kg at $8.50. Previously second-up 12th of 14 in a 3yo Mdn at Randwick on December 26 over 1400m, 17 len behind Cellarmaster with 58kg at $31. Strips fitter and should be in the mix.

Most recently got back early 5th of 8 in a Mdn-Sw at Geelong on August 14 over 1425m, in the wet; 2.25 len behind Talkin' Stern with 59.5kg at $2.35. The start before that 2nd of 7 in a Mdn-Sw at Mildura on July 17 over 1200m, on a slow track; nose behind Royal Heritage carrying 59.5kg at $1.50. Racing well and can atone.

Third-up today. Resuming made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Wangaratta on July 6 over 1000m, on heavy track; 1.2 len behind My Bonnie Lassie with 58kg at $26. Last start 4th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Murtoa on July 25 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Atella Miss with 59.5kg at $8. Minor hope.

At the latest run 5th of 11 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Morphettville Parks on August 22 over 1250m, slow going 3 len behind Torpedoes with 56kg at $10. The start before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 10 in a 3yo+ Mdn-Sw at Morphettville Parks on August 1 over 1250m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Amalfi Dreamer carrying 56kg at $21. Place chance.

Gelding by Noverre facing the starter for the first time. Fitter for a jump-out on August 14 at Flemington when finished sixth. Wary of top combination.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when 3rd of 7 in a 2yo Hcp at Sandown-Lakeside on April 6 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Blind Raise with 56.5kg at $12. Has ability and should take beating.

Was well-supported at debut, 3rd of 13 in a Mdn-Sw at Geelong on July 31 over 1200m, slow going 2.25 len behind Royal Duck carrying 57kg at $3.60. Rates highly with upside.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when 7th of 10 in the LR ANZAC Day Stakes at Flemington on April 25 over 1400m, 6 len behind Blind Raise with 54.5kg at $21. Looks all set for a effective return.
