MYSTICAL MERLIN (7) is still a maiden after eight runs. Was one of the favoured runners last time out but didn't live up to market expectations, finishing sixth over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after he was well back on straightening. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. WHY ME LORD (6) hasn't been far away but remains a maiden after four starts. Last time out he drifted back but got home steadily to be beaten 15 lengths into fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Will need a good ride from Martina Rojas off the awkward draw. Tough to hold out. Overdue and looks well placed to break the ice. TACITAP (2) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then got a long way back last start when 16 lengths away in sixth over 1207m at this track. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. MY LITTLE NICO G (5) was never in contention when resuming last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), finishing fourth and beaten 13 lengths. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Solid claims on best form.

Jumped at very long odds at debut, ran second last of 8 at Monmouth Park Turf on August 9 over 1106m, 20 len behind Skyrush carrying 56.5kg at $53.50. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.

Second-up. First-up after 10 months ran last in a small field at this track on August 7 over 1207m, 13 len behind Jeremiahtwentynine carrying 55.5kg at $6.50. Previously second-up 6th of 8 at Laurel on October 19 over 1207m, 10 len behind Prince Of Darkness with 55.5kg at $4.10. Should progress from that first-up run.
