Comes back from a metro run at Globe Derby Park where he finished fourth in a NR 45 to 50 over 2230m, beaten six and a half metres by Night Spirit. The start prior he chased Reach The Peak home at Port Pirie in a NR 47 to 54 but was still beaten over 12 metres. Prefer others.

Finished sixth in Saturday company at Globe Derby Park last start, beaten just over seven metres in a NR 45 to 52 after being unwanted in the market. Two back he was fifth in a NR up to 55 and finished well held after contacting marker pegs near the 600m. Needs a sharper effort.

Was unwanted in the market when sixth in a NR 55 to 69 at Port Pirie last start, finishing well beaten by 22 metres behind Fe Fe On Fire. He had been sent out favourite in a NR 48 to 55 here the run prior but managed only fourth, beaten just over eight metres after being hampered from the 800m. Has to produce more.

Drops out of Saturday company after finishing eighth in a NR 63 to 74 over 2230m at Globe Derby Park, well beaten by 21 metres behind Lochinvar Leader. Her previous run was also plain in a No NR over 2645m, where she finished last and tailed off. May do better.

Made full use of his market standing last start, winning as favourite in a NR 47 to 54 over 1609m at Port Pirie and beating Balladoro by over 12 metres in a 1:54.8 mile rate. That followed a strong second here in a NR up to 65, beaten just over a meter by Fe Fe On Fire. Can win again.

Has been honest without winning, running third in a metro NR 45 to 50 at Globe Derby Park last start when beaten five metres by Night Spirit. He was also third at Port Pirie two back in a NR 55 to 69, beaten four metres at generous odds behind Fe Fe On Fire. Looking elsewhere.

Backs up quickly after winning in Saturday company at Globe Derby Park, taking a Colts Geldings No NR over 2230m by just under four metres from Treacherous Dan. That followed a Melton win in a NR up to 57, where he beat Posterized by a nose at long odds. Could land the hat trick.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Held his ground well enough in Saturday company at Globe Derby Park last start, finishing sixth in a NR 56 to 69 and beaten just over four metres by Clarenden Tribute after being near the top of an open market. Two back at Port Pirie he was beaten a long way in a NR up to 65 after breaking stride at the start. Can feature with even luck.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing fifth in a NR 50 to 55 at Ararat, beaten six and a half metres by Grinning Beach Boy when near the top of betting and with a score-up issue noted. His prior Charlton run was weaker, finishing second last and beaten over 18 metres after hanging in at the start. Would want to see a betting push.
