Last start came from midfield; 2nd of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Mortlake on October 31 over 1300m, on a slow track; 1.0 len behind Back Up Barbie with 59.5kg at $9. The start before that led but faded 3rd of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Manangatang on October 10 over 1175m, 4.5 len behind Hellish Lee with 59.5kg at $2.80. Harder here.

Resuming after a lengthy spell. Only one run when ran last of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Moe on May 28 over 1200m, on a wet track; 16 len behind Anglesea with 59.5kg at $61. Wait until he shows something.

Racing first-up today. Finished off last campaign second of 8 at Sale Mdn-Sw June 10 over 1717m, on rain affected going; a long neck behind Colizzi carrying 59.5kg at $9.50. On debut fifth of 8 at Geelong Mdn-Sw April 22 over 1325m, 1.4 len behind Strangethingdesire with 59kg at $4.40. Everything points to a positive return.

Dual acceptor. Was well-supported at debut, came from midfield; 2nd of 10 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Warrnambool on October 29 over 1400m, nose behind Grandpa Neil with 58kg at $3.40. Should improve and the booking of Shinn helps.

Third race start. First start 7th of 9 in a Mdn-Sw at Pakenham on May 8 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 10 len behind Afterberna with 57kg at $5.50. Returned from break sat on the pace when 3rd of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Kyneton on October 20 over 1218m, 3.5 len behind Merry Chase with 57kg at $6. Fitter and will take some holding out.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when 5th of 12 in a Mdn-Sw at Ballarat Synthetic on August 18 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Jailhouse carrying 57kg at $9. Possible improver.

Last start 4th of 13 in a Mdn-Sw at Warrnambool on October 15 over 1300m, 3.5 len behind Black Aces carrying 57kg at $26. Before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 11 in a Mdn-Sw at Hamilton on September 14 over 1100m, slow going 6 len behind Extreme Turbo with 57kg at $7.50. Comes into this in ordinary form. Looking elsewhere.

Second run back. First-up after four months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 12 in a 4yo+ Mdn-Sw at Sale on October 25 over 1400m, slow going 1.5 len behind Rough Enuff carrying 57.5kg at $5. Previously second-up ran on from midfield; 2nd of 8 in a Mdn at Caulfield Heath on May 27 over 1500m, on a slow track; neck behind Just For Kicks with 57.5kg at $5. Fitter now and looks nicely placed off form last campaign.

Filly by Almanzor on debut. Fitter for a jump-out on October 30 at Flemington when finished fourth. Respecting first time out.

Filly by Kingman facing the starter for the first time. Fitter for a jump-out on November 2 at Cranbourne when finished fourth. Betting best guide.
