Failed to impress last start; 6th (Sr2) over 2400m at this track, beaten 21 m by Utah Jazz (2:59.60) in 3yo+ on April 10 at $44.40. Showed ability the race before when he won by 5.5 m as favourite (Fr6) at Ascot Park Raceway (2:44.40) beating Vinchetto in 3yo+ on April 3 at $2.90. Hard to go past on best form.

Comments

Eight-year-old mare showed improvement last time. Won by 2.25 m (Sr1) at Ascot Park Raceway (2:45.50) beating Cold Pursuit in on April 3 at $16.90. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into eighth behind MacK Pack at Wyndham Raceway over 2400m in a 3yo+ on March 30 at $47.80. This looks a far sterner test.

Last start was seventh behind Utah Jazz at this track over 2400m in a 3yo+ on April 10 at $35.10. Raced better the start before that with a good run when 3rd (Fr7) over 2400m at Wyndham Raceway, beaten 4 m by MacK Pack (3:01.70) in 3yo+ on March 30 at $12.50. Rates highly and can atone.

Last start 4th (Fr2) over 2400m at this track, beaten 13 m by Hazer (2:59.60) on April 10 at $25.80. Two runs back 2nd (Fr2) over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway beaten 2.25 m by Emerald Abbey (2:45.50) on April 3 at $71.10. This looks a far sterner task.

Two back was eleventh behind Jenny Gump at Wyndham Raceway over 2400m in a 3yo+ on March 30 at $5.20. Then a handy effort when third behind Airwaves at this track over 2400m in a 3yo+ on April 10 at $12.70. Top chance in this line-up.
