Form hard to fault. Comes off a 30 day let-up. At the latest run held ground to the line 2nd of 9 in a Super Mdn-Sw at Illawarra Grange on July 30 over 1450m, 1.0 len behind Overshadow with 59kg at $1.85. The start before that 3rd of 12 in a Mid 3yo Mdn at this track on July 16 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Stakeholder with 58.5kg at $3.10. Going well and should be prominent again.

Second run back. First-up after eight months 2nd of 9 in a Mid Mdn-Sw at this track on August 15 over 1000m, 1.3 len behind Rhythm Of The Rein carrying 59kg at $21. Previously second-up 8th of 13 in a Super Mdn at Wagga on December 24 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Jesters Award with 59kg at $21. SCRATCHED.

Second-up. First-up after 11 months 2nd of 13 in a 4yo+ Mdn at Wyong on August 16 over 1100m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Borderfall with 55kg at $11. Previously second-up 5th of 9 in a Mdn-Sw at Tamworth on August 29 over 1000m, 3 len behind Bullion Hunter carrying 56.5kg at $5.50. Back in good shape and should give a good account again.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation second of 7 at Gosford Mid 2yo Mdn April 2 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Shalash with 57.5kg at $9.50. On debut fourth of 9 at Scone Super Mdn March 20 over 1000m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Lord Remlap carrying 56kg at $6. Capable of a bold return.

Colt by Zoustar on debut. Ran 3rd in a Randwick trial over 1040m on August 14. Well related colt from the Gai and Adrian yard so demands respect.

Three-year-old gelding making debut by Nicconi out of Feline Advisory. Purchased for NZD $ 150,000 (NZB 2025 Karaka - Book 1). Second in a 1040m barrier trial on August 14 at Randwick. Pay to keep an eye on betting moves.

Second-up. First start raced on the pace before fading to run last of 7 in a 2yo SW at Mornington on April 18 over 1000m, 6 len behind The Speed Machine with 58kg at $21. Went for a spell before returning tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 8 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Wyong on August 16 over 1200m, slow going 3.5 len behind Harry Lime with 57kg at $7. Has the job ahead from a wide alley.

Since last run he has trialed at Randwick over 1040m on 14/8/2026; Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 8 in a Super Mdn at Canterbury on August 5 over 1200m, 27 len behind Phantom Major carrying 56.5kg at $19. The run before third of 9 at Warwick Farm 2yo C&G Mdn-Sw July 15 over 1100m, soft track; 4 len behind Castillo King carrying 56kg at $21. In the mix.

Colt by Pinatubo making his first appearance. Finished fourth in a Hawkesbury trial over 1000m on July 27. Others have better claims.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old gelding by Zousain out of Encentivan. At the most recent trial finished seventh on August 4 at Illawarra Grange over 800m. Prefer to see under race conditions.

Racing first-up today. Finished off last preparation sixth of 9 at Eagle Farm 2yo Hcp May 6 over 1300m, soft track; 2.75 len behind Kickup Rocky with 58.5kg at $2.50. On debut fourth of 12 at Wyong 2yo Mdn-Sw March 28 over 1200m, soft track; 6 len behind Tenenbaum with 57kg at $20. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Looks all set for a bright return.

Third-up today. Resuming 4th of 8 in a 2&3yo Mdn-Sw at Randwick Kensington on July 29 over 1100m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Sequinned carrying 56kg at $8.50. Second-up 3rd of 7 in a Super 3yo C&G Mdn at Canterbury on August 12 over 1200m, slow going 3 len behind Savagram carrying 59.5kg at $6.50. Racing well. Back in grade and is ready to break through.

First starter by Dundeel colt from the Chris Waller yard. Trialled on August 21 at Rosehill over 1030m and finished fifth. Tough assignment at first outing and tempted to favour others.

Resuming after a four months break. Not seen since he finished last of 7 at Gosford 2yo Hcp May 9 over 1200m, 6 len behind I Am Dirty with 57kg at $5. On debut third of 7 at Mornington 2yo SW April 18 over 1000m, 2.75 len behind The Speed Machine carrying 58kg at $11. Will improve on whatever he does in this.

Second-up. First-up after five months couldn't go on with it; ran last of 7 in a Super 3yo C&G Mdn at Canterbury on August 12 over 1200m, on a slow track; 26 len behind Savagram with 55.5kg at $31. Previously second-up ran last of 12 in a 2yo Mdn-Sw at Wyong on March 28 over 1200m, slow going 20 len behind Tenenbaum with 57kg at $101. Unlikely to be competitive.

Second-up. First start ran last of 8 in a 2&3yo Mdn-Sw at Rosehill on April 6 over 1200m, slow going 9 len behind Hellabella carrying 56kg at $8. Went for a break before returning 4th of 11 in a Mdn at this track on August 15 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Schumacher carrying 56.5kg at $17. Not far away last time and could sneak into the finish.

Third race start. First start didn't finish the race at this track Mid Mdn-Sw January 28 over 1300m. Returned from break 3rd of 11 in a Mdn at this track on August 15 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Schumacher with 59kg at $101. Progressive type who must be included.

Resuming after a three-and-a-half months break. Finished off last preparation eighth of 11 at this track Cg&E Mdn May 16 over 1200m, soft track; 2.5 len behind Our Vinny with 56kg at $6. On debut fifth of 10 at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw April 29 over 1300m, 3 len behind Katoto carrying 57kg at $8. Prefer to see how he returns.

Comes off a 57 day let-up. At the latest run 9th of 11 in a Mdn-Sw at Goulburn on July 3 over 1600m, on a slow track; 19 len behind Feazabeel with 59kg at $61. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 8 in a Mid 3yo Mdn at Newcastle on June 13 over 1400m, slow going 4 len behind Full Of Fun with 55kg at $101. Impossible to recommend.

Second-up. First-up after eight months sat on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 11 in a Mdn at this track on August 15 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Schumacher carrying 53kg at $6.50. Previously second-up 5th of 8 in a Mdn at Canberra on December 28 over 1000m, 4 len behind Miss Farnan carrying 57.5kg at $6. No easier this time and looks tested again.
