Comes here in the right form. Came from midfield and won by 1.5 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:51.40) beating Rocknroll Cowboy in on October 31 at $2.50 at the bell was 6th-10.8. Two runs back was well back in the run when 4th (Fr9) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 6th-8.57 beaten 4.5 m by Neptunite (1:52.60) on October 17 at $34. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts at this course.

Before that 2nd (Fr8) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track was leading by 4.82 at the bell, beaten 1.5 m by Bartello (1:50.10) on September 19 at $10. Not keen.

Brings the right form to the table. Posted a big 5 m win as favourite (Fr8) at this track (1:48.70) beating Alert Bay in 3yo G1 on October 31 at $1.28 at the bell was leading 4. Two runs back won by 2 m as favourite (Fr8) at this track (1:47.60) beating Nocturnal in 3yo on October 24 at $1.06 at the bell was leading 3.14. Star colt who can add to the winning streak.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3.5 m fourth behind Palladium at this track over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten a nose second again at this track same class on October 24. One of the exotic chances.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Been racing well and showed plenty of improvement following October 17 run. Last start came from midfield and posted a big 13 m win (Fr9) at this track (2:43.00) beating Snap Shot in on October 24 at $5 at the bell was leading 6.49. This race will be harder than that win. First four hope.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Last start game effort when 3rd (Fr5) over 2240m after showing early speed at Melton was 5th-9.74 at the bell, beaten 4.5 m by Fox Dan (2:36.40) in 4yo G2 on September 19 at $26. Two runs back won by 1.75 m (Sr1) at Kilmore (2:38.90) beating Thunderfire in 4yo on September 10 at $2.80 at the bell was 2nd-0.14. In fine form. Draws wide but could threaten with some luck.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
