First-up after three months 5th of 11 at Wingatui on June 1 over 1300m, on a wet track; 7 len behind Interlagos with 58.5kg at $4.20. Previously second-up 2nd of 11 at Ruakaka on January 7 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Let It Begin carrying 58.5kg at $9.60. Improver on last start. Has placed second up. Top tier must drawn the ace.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old gelding by Belardo out of Quevado. Fourth in his only trial last September at Arawa Park. New stable now. Dam has left Lagerfeld (3 wins). This looks a test.
Most recently 3rd of 11 at Wingatui on June 1 over 1300m, on a wet track; 2.5 len behind Interlagos carrying 53.5kg at $16.90. The run before that 10th of 14 at Riccarton Park Synthetic on May 15 over 1200m, 9 len behind Holdem with 56.5kg at $18.40. Should hold the form and she appeals as one of the hardest to beat.

At big odds at debut, second last of 10 at Riccarton Park Synthetic on May 3 over 1200m, 13 len behind Pogacar with 56.5kg at $49.10. Last start 4th of 11 at Wingatui on May 23 over 1400m, on rain affected going; 6 len behind Jessie Jay with 56.5kg at $27.90. Better at last start. Well bred. Can pay a first dividend today.
