Most recently failed to make an impression; 5th of 12 at this track on July 19 over 1750m, 7 len behind Top Reach with 53kg at $38.10. Before that came from midfield; 3rd of 10 at this track on June 21 over 1300m, 4.5 len behind Amalfi carrying 51kg at $4.90. Easily accounted for last time out but this suits.

Form hard to fault. Last start 4th of 11 at this track on July 12 over 1400m, 3 len behind Derma Okuridashi carrying 56kg at $1.50. The race before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 12 at this track on June 22 over 1400m, 8 len behind Meiner Warrior with 53kg at $2.70. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.

Mare back from a spell of eight months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last preparation second of 11 at this track December 2 over 1400m, 2 len behind Takeno Raiko with 54kg at $1.90. Previously first up; fifth of 12 at this track July 9 2024 over 1300m, 5 len behind Helix carrying 54kg at $2.20. This is an ideal race to kick off. Top hope.
