Four-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track. Last start won by 15 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr5) at this track (1:53.90) beating Mossdale Terry in 4yo+ on June 6 at $1.15. Has been impressive of late and has strong claims again.

No clear run last start; 9th (Sr2) over 1660m at this track, beaten 9 m by Congo Line (1:55.10) in 4yo+ on June 6 at $5.50. Showed ability the run before when he won by 1.5 m (Sr1) at this track (2:32.70) beating Whos Delight in 4yo+ on May 16 at $6. Draws wide but could measure up with even luck.

Seven-year-old entire showed improvement last start. 3rd (Fr1) over 1660m after showing early pace at this track beaten 2 m by Congo Line (1:55.10) in 4yo+ on June 6 at $4. The run before was not as impressive when beaten by 7 m finishing eighth behind Ozzie Punta at this track over 2138m in a 4yo+ on May 16 at $34. Facing a tough assignment this time around.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Ellis Street at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ on May 23 at $7.50. Then a handy effort when a close second after being driven well back, behind Congo Line at this track over 1660m in a 4yo+ on June 6 at $3.30. Working up to a win.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Seven-year-old gelding showed improvement last time and is backing up after a couple of days. 3rd (Sr5) over 2138m at this track, beaten 13 m by Reds Ablaze (2:31.00) in 3yo+ on June 11 at $12. The run before was not as impressive when beaten by 7 m finishing sixth after being driven well back, behind Tilly Jayne at this track over 1660m in a 3yo+ on June 4 at $8.50. Tested.
