Racing consistently with minor placings at her last two starts. Placed last start 3rd (Fr4) over 2150m at Bendigo, beaten 18 m by Major Max (2:44.10) in NR up to 36 on April 8 at $7.50. Before that 2nd (Sr1) over 1690m at this track, at the bell was 4th-9.8 beaten a head by Playa Del Carmen (2:07.00) in NR up to 36 on March 30 at $15. This looks a far sterner task.

Last start 11th (10m Fr4) over 2180m at Stawell, beaten 75 m by Kamaran (2:51.00) in No NR on April 3 at $81. Two runs back won by 7 m as favourite (Fr3) at this track (2:46.90) beating Allwatfunjingles in NR 37 to 41 on March 30 at $1.65 at the bell was 4th-8.5. This looks too tough.

Comes here second-up after a week-and-a-half. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (Sr1) over 1690m at this track was 6th-15.2 at the bell, beaten 18 m by Manda Kyvalley (2:04.50) in NR 42 to 47 on March 30 at $41. Will not find this easy. Not keen.

Two back was well beaten into fifth after being driven well back, behind Acool Investment at Kilmore over 1690m in a 0-1 WIN on March 12 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Bar Tab at Melton over 2240m in a 0-1 WIN on March 20 at $11. Solid top-three prospects.

Last start on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a head when quickly away, (Fr3) at this track (2:05.50) beating Te Amo in NR 42 to 47 on March 30 at $4.60 at the bell was 2nd-2.5. Big chance of back-to-back wins.

Before that, 8th (FT Fr2) over 2150m at Bendigo beaten 25 m by Wallis (2:43.10) in No NR on March 25 at $21. Among the chances on best form.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind The Sky Is The Limit at Geelong over 2100m in a NR 50 to 55 on March 13 at $6. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Rakero Warrior at Melton over 2240m in a NR 50 to 55 on March 20 at $6. With even luck is a winning chance.

Five-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at Echuca and this track. Last start won by 4 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at Echuca (2:47.50) beating Midnite Muscle in NR up to 50 on April 5 at $2.10. In form and can land the hat trick.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Seven-year-old mare who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start 6th (Fr1) over 1720m at Melton was 3rd-4.62 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Bennie And The Jets (2:06.50) in NR 60 to 69 on March 28 at $34. This looks a suitable assignment.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Maestro at Charlton over 2570m in a No NR on March 15 at $101. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second behind Kamaran at Stawell over 2180m in a No NR on April 3 at $3.70. Nice effort last time. Can play a role in the finish again.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was well beaten after breaking at Bendigo on March 25. At the previous start 10th (Sr4) over 1650m at Bendigo beaten 35 m by Farrokh (2:01.10) in NR 50 to 55 on March 18 at $3.50. Manners have been letting her down but she is capable on her day.

Last start was well beaten after breaking at Bendigo on March 25. At the run before 10th (Sr2) over 2150m at Bendigo, beaten 30 m by Kyvalley Judge (2:42.10) in NR 56 to 64 on March 18 at $61. Better than the last few runs suggest.
