Second run back. First-up after five months 5th of 12 in a Hcp at Te Rapa on September 13 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 2.25 len behind Astoria Brooke carrying 60kg at $25.10. Previously second-up ran second last of 13 in the G3 Churchill (Coupland's Mile) Stakes at Riccarton Park on November 12 over 1600m, slow going 11 len behind Mystic Park carrying 56kg at $28.50. Not keen on his chances.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up ran on strongly from last on the turn and won by a 0.1 len in a Rating 87 at Cambridge Synthetic on August 28 over 1550m defeating Prometheus with 61kg at $7.50. Second run from a spell ran last of 12 in a Hcp at Te Rapa on September 13 over 1600m, on a wet track; 50 len behind Astoria Brooke carrying 59kg at $24.90. Expect he will make amends.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 8 at Ellerslie on September 19 over 2100m, slow going 0.2 len behind Diamond Jak carrying 56kg at $5.30. The race before that won by a 0.1 len at Ellerslie on September 5 over 2200m on a soft track defeating Hezashocka with 54kg at $3.60. Capable of taking this out.

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign 12th of 15 at Te Rapa July 25 over 2200m, in the wet; 18 len behind Diamond Jak carrying 55kg at $10. Previously first up; third in a small field at Tauherenikau May 3 over 1400m, a neck behind Lucullan carrying 58kg at $7.40. Will take great benefit from this run.

Recent form sound. Last start 2nd of 15 in the G3 Metric Mile at Trentham on September 19 over 1600m, in the wet; 3 len behind Knock Off carrying 53.5kg at $10.50.

Previously second-up 3rd of 11 at Wanganui on March 14 over 1600m, on a slow track; 0.3 len behind Girl Talk carrying 54.5kg at $4.50. Has won second up in the past and is capable of building on that record.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up 6th of 9 at this track on August 22 over 1200m, in the wet; 2.25 len behind Testwin carrying 59kg at $9.10. Second-up favourite; came from midfield and won by a 0.3 len at this track on September 12 over 1600m on a heavy track defeating Tenfoot Tall with 60.5kg at $4.40. Hard to beat on that latest effort.

Resuming today after a break of nine weeks. Finished off last preparation ninth of 15 at Te Rapa July 25 over 2200m, on heavy track; 5 len behind Diamond Jak with 54kg at $4.10. Previously first up; second last of 10 at Te Rapa April 25 over 1400m, soft track; 11 len behind Talisker with 54.5kg at $44.30. Expecting a strong run fresh.

Second run from a spell ran second last of 15 in the G3 Metric Mile at Trentham on September 19 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 24 len behind Knock Off carrying 53kg at $70.90.

Dual acceptor. Second-up. First-up after five months settled back and ran on when 8th of 10 at this track on September 12 over 1600m, on heavy track; 6 len behind Exit Left with 59.5kg at $19.10. Previously second-up ran last of 13 at Trentham on October 26 over 1400m, on a slow track; 9 len behind Wingman with 54kg at $35.30. Rates a top 4 hope and should do much better.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 8 at Ellerslie on September 5 over 2200m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Fly My Wey with 51kg at $5.70. The start before that held ground to the line 3rd of 7 at Te Rapa on August 22 over 2100m, on a slow track; 0.9 len behind Diamond Jak carrying 53kg at $6.50. Right in the mix.

Last start ran second last in a small field at Ruakaka on September 2 over 2100m, slow going 4.5 len behind Super Rosa carrying 56.5kg at $4.40. The race before that faded in the straight ran second last of 7 at Te Rapa on August 22 over 2100m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Diamond Jak with 51kg at $13.70. Will need to do a bit more.
