Last start was well back in the run when 3rd (Fr6) over 1740m at Riverina Paceway was 9th-13.7 at the bell, beaten 9 m by Lombok (2:03.20) on July 3 at $26. Two runs back won by a head when quickly away, (Fr6) at Shepparton (2:02.90) beating Denny Rocks in on June 23 at $23 at the bell was leading 2.06. Needs to do more. Not keen this time.

Seven-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at this track and Cranbourne. Last start posted a big 6 m win after showing early speed, (Fr2) at this track (2:03.80) beating Montana Pride in on July 10 at $2.60 at the bell was leading 3.9. In form and could land the hat trick.

Didn't do much at the last run, was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr7) over 2240m at this track, at the bell was 8th-14.1 beaten 15 m by Sweet Irish Loch (2:43.30) on July 11 at $71. Before that was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr3) over 1650m at Bendigo, at the bell was 6th-15.44 beaten 19 m by My Ultimate Barney (1:56.50) on July 1 at $31. Unlikely to threaten.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Miss Ari at this track over 2240m on July 4 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Sweet Irish Loch at this track over 2240m on July 11 at $81. Can continue the good form.

Beaten favourite last start when third at this track on June 6. Was victorious the start prior at this track on May 30. Can overcome the back row draw to return to winning form.
