Most recently 4th of 10 at this track on August 20 over 820m, 1.3 len behind Nishino Mignonne with 55kg at $3.50. The run before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 12 at this track on August 5 over 820m, 3 len behind Ashante Girl carrying 55kg at $8.20. Nice draw and worth somethought.

Second run from a spell favourite; won by a nose at this track on August 5 over 820m defeating Yamato Charge carrying 55kg at $1.60. This race is well within her grasp.

Most recently rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 8 at this track on August 21 over 1230m, 0.8 len behind Sun Linaria carrying 53kg at $6.40. The run before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 9 at this track on August 7 over 1230m, 1.0 len behind Grand Centre with 53kg at $9. Narrowly missed last start and is a top chance again.

Third-up today. Resuming ran second last of 18 at Kokura on June 28 over 1200m, 40 len behind Tiger Road carrying 57.0kg at $292.50. Last start rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 12 at this track on August 5 over 820m, nose behind Blue Brave carrying 54kg at $9.10. Close-up last start but this looks a stretch.
