Improved last start with a game effort when 3rd (Fr1) over 2600m at Addington beaten 1.5 m by Mattie Nevin (3:10.90) in 3yo+ on October 23 at $14.20. A big run would not surprise.

6-7 Oamaru 18Oct26 2600SS $10,038 R35 TO R45 3U 10m 2 Max Hill $2, btn 11.9m, wnr Bettor Dreams 0, 2:03.00 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered by a breaking runner near the 500m.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Bettor Dreams at Oamaru over 2600m in a 3yo+ on October 18 at $6.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind The Coalman at Addington over 1980m on October 21 at $5. One of the chances.

Only had 3 starts last preparation. Returned to racing with a handy win by 4 m as favourite (Fr1) at Phar Lap Raceway (2:34.40) beating Zoom X in 3yo+ on October 25 at $1.80. Further improvement in store.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 2.25 m (Fr4) at Oamaru (3:18.85) beating Gotta Elect Bill in 3yo+ on October 18 at $18.10. Two runs back 8th (Fr7) over 2000m at Rangiora beaten 35 m by Cherish Me (2:24.50) on May 17 at $18.50. Hard to beat.

Last start 5th (Fr2) over 2600m at Addington beaten 6 m by Elton J (3:16.00) in 3yo+ on October 16 at $13.70. Two runs back 5th (Fr1) over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway beaten 25 m by Share A Dream (3:21.00) in 4yo+ on September 27 at $11.50. This looks a far sterner task.

7-8 Addington 16Oct26 2600SS $16,740 R40 TO R50 3U 10m 3 Tim Williams $15, btn 7.6m, wnr Elton J 0, 2:01.20 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

6-11 Phar Lap Raceway 25Oct26 2600SS $11,299 R41 TO R50 4U 10m 2 Thomas Borcoskie $32, btn 14.0m, wnr Queen Tyron 0, 2:01.50 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Failed to impress last start; 6th (10m 2) over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway, beaten 14 m by Queen Tyron (3:16.40) in 4yo+ on October 25 at $31.80. Showed ability the run before when he posted a big 10 m win (Fr2) at Phar Lap Raceway (3:21.00) beating Lester in 4yo+ on September 27 at $20.90. Can improve enough to feature.

1-7 Addington 21Oct26 1980MS $7,300 R40 TO R49 Fr7 Darnika Williams $14, won by 3m, 2nd Major Happy 0, 1:58.30 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Last start won by 3 m (Fr7) at Addington (2:25.70) beating Major Happy in on October 21 at $14.40. Sure to be in the mix.
