MALICIOUS (1) missed the frame latest when fifth at this track (30.07) but was a winner four back in the best time of the program. Should be very hard to beat this time. HEY PAT (6) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only 2 lengths from the winner Modest Man in third(25.59) at Maitland. Winning chance. ACE'S FOUR BRIAN (3) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 2.25 lengths at this track in a handy 23.19 beating Lightning Blitz. Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. Sure to measure up.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th in a Grade 5 on November 1 over 515m at this track behind King Of Gods beaten 7 lengths (30.07). Placed two back at Grafton. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Good performance to win by 2.25 lengths at this track over 400m (23.19) beating Lightning Blitz in Grade 5 on December 6. Looks the one to beat again.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won comfortably by 7 lengths at Gosford (22.72) beating Quandary in a Grade 5 on November 22. Risky starter, others hold stronger claims.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (25.59) at Maitland over 450m. Capable of a strong show.
