Worked home below his best when sixth at Canberra last start, beaten just under three lengths after covering ground and having some difficulty getting clear. The start prior was much better, winning at Cootamundra by just over a length from Jazz All Knight after finishing strongly. Cootamundra win two back keeps him in the place calculations.

Finished strongly for third at Orange last start, beaten just over a length, and the effort had merit after he was steadied early and held up. That also put him ahead of Vinari in a recent matchup. Win record is modest, but the claim helps his place case.

Has been well below the mark at his past two, finishing last at Echuca after settling back and fading to be beaten over 12 lengths. The run prior was in Open company at Jerilderie, but he still finished second last and was beaten just over six lengths. Others look stronger.

Resumed in Class 1 grade at Nowra and was eighth, beaten three and a half lengths, after settling rearward and only keeping on late on soft ground. His previous run was a ninth in Class 2 company at Wagga, beaten just over three lengths after being slow away. Not at this stage.

Made a fair return when fourth in Class 1 company at Nowra, beaten a length and a half on soft ground after settling back. His previous appearance was a Class 2 sixth at this track, where he was near the top of an open market but worked home evenly. Wide draw leaves him with work to do.

Ran another honest race when fourth at Orange last start, beaten a length and a half after attracting some market support and sitting ready to challenge before being only fair late. Two back she was a well-supported favourite at Cootamundra and was beaten just under a length after jumping awkwardly. Looks well placed to return to winning form with the claim.

Produced a decisive lift at Wangaratta last start, beating Vaderlee by just under two lengths after finishing powerfully, even though he was unwanted in the market. His Wodonga run prior in BM52 grade had him too far back to pose a threat, but he still made some inroads. Looks a genuine winning chance again third up.

Returned with a strong second in Class 2 grade at Wagga, beaten just over half a length after travelling well and fighting hard late. Before that he won a Class 1 at Gundagai over 1100m on heavy ground, beating Rain Queen by a head despite racing wide throughout. Clear danger if he runs out the 1300m strongly.

Had excuses when seventh in Class 2 grade at Wagga last start, beaten five lengths after being slow away, racing keenly and covering ground. The Canberra run prior was also in Class 2 company and he was last after racing keenly again. Minor claims only.

Worked home evenly for fourth at Wagga last start over 1600m, beaten just over two lengths at big odds after jumping awkwardly early. She had also finished fourth at Cootamundra, beaten two and a half lengths behind Dream Inherit, with Vinari ahead of her there. Back in trip and happy to watch.

Was safely held in Class 1 company at Albury last start, finishing eighth and beaten five and a half lengths after being unwanted in the market. The Wagga Riverside run prior in BM50 grade was also plain, beaten just over five lengths. Hard top recommend.
