First up. At the last run he 10th (Fr6) over 1980m at Addington, well beaten by Tracy The Jet (2:23.70) in 3yo on November 14 at $17.50. Well-placed for this return and is expected to prove very hard to stop.

11-12 Addington 23Oct26 1980MS $17,000 R35 TO R40 3U Fr7 Thomas Borcoskie $48, btn 57.5m, wnr Brewster Baker 0, 2:00.90 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Backs up three days after he failed to impress 11th (Fr7) over 1980m at Addington, beaten 60 m by Brewster Baker (2:28.80) in 3yo+ on October 23 at $48.30. Before that 7th (FrU3) over 2400m at Mt Harding, beaten 21 m by Father Mike (3:08.73) in 3yo+ on October 11 at $19.40. Has the job ahead.

4-16 Addington 09Oct26 2600SS $26,750 R46 4U 10m 5 Stacy Whatuira $27, btn 9.5m, wnr Bravehearthighlander 0, 2:02.50 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

10-16 Addington 09Oct26 2600SS $26,750 R46 4U 10m 1 Kimberly Butt $65, btn 29.7m, wnr Bravehearthighlander 0, 2:02.50 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Lay inwards and struck track markers rounding the final bend. Returned to the stabling area with blood present in a nostril.

Comes here second-up after two-and-a-half weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 10th (10m 1) over 2600m at Addington beaten 30 m by Bravehearthighlander (3:18.10) in 4yo+ on October 9 at $64.60. Unlikely to threaten against this field.

8-10 Ascot Park Raceway 15Oct26 2700SS $9,168 R55 30m 1 Hayden Douglas $4, btn 161.5m, wnr Duchess Maria 0, 2:04.00 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke gait near the 2200m, losing all chance.

Last start was well beaten into eighth behind Duchess Maria at Ascot Park Raceway over 2700m on October 15 at $3.50. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 3rd (10m 2) over 2600m at Addington beaten 6 m by Bravehearthighlander (3:18.10) in 4yo+ on October 9 at $3.30. Sure to go well.

1-11 Addington 16Oct26 2600SS $16,703 R35 TO R47 3U 20m 1 Colin Defilippi $28, won by 7.8m, 2nd Sheep 0, 2:04.80 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hung in during the early stages of the home straight and briefly locked wheels with Brett's Mate, hampering an outside runner.

Seven-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. Won by 7 m (20m 1) at Addington (3:21.70) beating Sheep in 3yo+ on October 16 at $27.80. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind Hoof It Hagrid at Addington over 1980m in a 3yo+ on September 18 at $51.20. Others read better.

6-14 Ascot Park Raceway 15Oct26 2200SS $41,400 R45 TO R75 M 4U Fr2 Wilson House $27, btn 25.7m, wnr Penelope Lane 0, 2:02.00 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke gait briefly at the start, losing ground.

Having her second run back from a spell. Game effort when 2nd (10m U1) over 2600m at Addington beaten 1.4 m by Dreams Pat (3:17.84) in 3yo+ on October 16 at $9.40. Another big run is on the cards.

Didn't do much last start, 7th (10m U1) over 2600m at Addington, beaten 25 m by Prestigious (3:24.20) on October 2 at $88.60. Before that 7th (Fr8) over 1980m at Addington beaten 40 m by Major Doosie (2:27.60) in 3yo+ on August 28 at $30.80. Not keen.

14-14 Ascot Park Raceway 15Oct26 2200SS $41,400 R45 TO R75 M 4U 10m 1 Kerryn Tomlinson $24, btn 275.9m, wnr Penelope Lane 0, 2:02.00 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke gait at the start, losing all chance.

Capable of better than what we have seen in two runs this prep. Two starts back 6th (35m 2) over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway beaten 13 m by Pyramid Rose (2:47.94) in 3yo+ on October 8 at $18.30. Must do a lot more.

Won three starts back at Cambridge Raceway over 2200m 3yo+ on August 21. Last start 4th (20m U1) over 2600m at Addington beaten 20 m by Dreams Pat (3:17.84) in 3yo+ on October 16 at $12.50. Sure to be in the mix.

7-16 Addington 09Oct26 2600SS $26,750 R46 4U 25m 1 Robert Butt $27, btn 17.8m, wnr Bravehearthighlander 0, 2:02.50 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Didn't do much last start, 7th (20m 1) over 2600m at Addington beaten 45 m by Dreams Pat (3:17.84) in 3yo+ on October 16 at $28.40. Before that 13th (25m 2) over 2600m at Addington, beaten 55 m by Bravehearthighlander (3:18.10) in 4yo+ on October 9 at $37.50. Needs to do more. Others make more appeal.

2-14 Ascot Park Raceway 15Oct26 2200SS $41,400 R45 TO R75 M 4U 10m 2 Matthew Williamson $6, btn 8.9m, wnr Penelope Lane 0, 2:02.00 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Solid performance when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Vertigo at Mt Harding over 2400m in a 3yo+ on October 4 at $7.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second behind Penelope Lane at Ascot Park Raceway over 2200m in a 4yo+ M on October 15 at $5.70. Will give a good account.

Resumes today. At the latest first-up run 3rd (FrU1) over 2200m at Alexandra Park beaten 9 m by Loteria (2:48.70) on November 7 at $17.50. Might need this run and others rate better.
