Second-up. Comes off a 40-day let-up. First-up after eight months 2nd of 9 at Te Rapa on September 13 over 1300m, on a wet track; 0.3 len behind Tiantai carrying 59kg at $13.50. Previously second-up won by 0.5 len at Riccarton Park on November 8 over 1200m defeating Fawke Lightning carrying 58.5kg at $5.30. Looks hard to beat.

Resumes after a break of seven months and has been in the money when fresh before.

When resuming last campaign sixth of 11 at this track November 21 over 1400m, soft track; 2.75 len behind Palmarow with 58.5kg at $11.10. Everything points to a effective return.

At the latest run ran second last of 12 at Hastings on September 26 over 1200m, slow going 6 len behind Cheerio with 54kg at $65.20. The run before that ran last of 10 at Awapuni Synthetic on August 13 over 1400m, 9 len behind Kereti carrying 54kg at $26.80. Last couple below par and she needs to lift.

The race before that came from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Trentham on September 19 over 1000m, on heavy track; 0.8 len behind Carlow carrying 58kg at $3.50. Up in trip and is worth some thought.

The race before that ran second last of 14 at Wanganui on August 29 over 1340m, on a wet track; 9 len behind Bokushi with 56.5kg at $11.50. One of the better chances.

Second-up today. Last outing sat behind the speed prior to fading 9th of 14 at Hawera on October 3 over 1400m, on a wet track; 4 len behind Belles Boom carrying 54kg at $37.80. At only start last preparation ran last of 11 at Trentham on December 14 over 1400m, 10 len behind Omega Boy carrying 55kg at $11. Has a perfect second up record from two starts but this looks a bit rich.
