Races BR Doomben

Comes here off a 59-day let-up. Most recently favourite; won by 1.2 len in the LR Ramornie Handicap at Grafton on July 15 over 1200m defeating Pereille with 54kg at $5. The run before that faded in the straight 9th of 17 in the LR Glasshouse Hcp at Sunshine Coast on July 4 over 1400m, slow going 3 len behind Arabian Rose carrying 54kg at $9. Handy gelding with one eye on the Kozzy.

Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 12 in a Hcp at this track on August 15 over 1200m, 4 len behind Taltarni Fields carrying 58kg at $9. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose in a Hcp at this track on August 1 over 1110m defeating Taltarni Fields with 58.5kg at $26. Genuine hope if he brings his A-game.

Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of three-and-a-half months. Finished off last preparation 13th of 16 at Eagle Farm in the LR Helen Coughlan May 30 over 1200m, soft track; 6 len behind Savagery Vibe carrying 55.5kg at $26. Previous preparation first-up won by 1.0 len Rockhampton Hcp November 14 over 1050m slow track defeating Heartoni carrying 58.5kg at $2. Will push forward but be vulnerable late.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up 4th of 8 in a Cl6-Sw at this track on August 22 over 1110m, 2 len behind Let'sfacethemusic carrying 60kg at $5. Second run from a spell made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 7 in a Cl6 at Eagle Farm on September 5 over 1000m, slow going 1.4 len behind Moulin Miss carrying 58.5kg at $5.50. Will prove hard to stop down in the weights on the quick back-up.

Resuming. Finished off last campaign ninth of 14 at Toowoomba Qlty March 27 over 1200m, 6 len behind Cherry Rose with 54kg at $21. First up last campaign second last of 8 at Sunshine Coast Hcp December 5 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind King Yoshi with 59kg at $18. Will improve on whatever he does in this.

Racing well recently. Last start made ground from midfield; 3rd of 11 in a Hcp at Eagle Farm on August 29 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Town Crier carrying 53kg at $2.45. The race before that favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a long-neck in a Bm78 at Rosehill on August 15 over 1100m on a rain affected track defeating Off The Press with 60kg at $6. Is in this up to his ears on best form but he needs to find it.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up did the work up front then tired ran second last of 7 in a Bm78 at Randwick on July 11 over 1000m, in the wet; 5.5 len behind Zouripper carrying 59.5kg at $8.50. Last start sat on the speed throughout before fading 8th of 10 in a Bm88 at Randwick on August 8 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Prima Bella with 54kg at $26. Can improve sharply off a freshen and play a role.

Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of five-and-a-half months. Finished off last campaign fifth of 16 at Randwick Ctry Champ April 4 over 1400m, soft track; 3 len behind Chidiac carrying 57kg at $3.60. Previous preparation first-up favourite; won by 1.1 len Lismore Ctry Cl3 December 19 over 1110m defeating Kirra's Sister carrying 57kg at $1.95. In the mix.

Dual acceptor. Second run back. First-up after five months sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 11 in a Hcp at Eagle Farm on August 29 over 1000m, 11 len behind Town Crier with 52kg at $21. Previously second-up 4th of 14 in the LR Weetwood Hcp at Toowoomba on September 27 over 1200m, 6 len behind Tavs carrying 54kg at $31. Looks tested on the first up effort.

Most recently ran on strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 11 in a Hcp at Eagle Farm on August 29 over 1000m, 2.5 len behind Town Crier with 49kg at $31. The start before that 2nd of 8 in a Hcp at Sunshine Coast on August 9 over 1000m, neck behind Chakra Boy with 52.5kg at $3.90. Not up to this.
