Second-up. First-up after 11 months raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 10 at Gosford Mid Bm64 on December 4 over 1000m, 4 len behind Detendu carrying 57.5kg at $4.20. Previously second-up 4th of 7 at Kembla Grange Cl1 on December 12 2024 over 1000m, 1.2 len behind Art's Alive carrying 56.5kg at $5.50. Looking elsewhere for the winner.

Most recently 6th of 9 at Canberra Cl2 on December 5 over 1400m, slow going 2.5 len behind Supairo with 60kg at $5. Before that 5th of 10 at Gosford Bm64 on November 11 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Pariah Engagement with 58.5kg at $4.80. Tough to beat if near best.

Second-up. First-up after seven months 6th of 10 at Hawkesbury Cg&E Bm64 on November 27 over 1100m, 1.75 len behind Big Papa carrying 57.5kg at $21. Previously second-up 2nd of 9 at this track Cg&E Cl1 on April 28 over 1000m, slow going head behind Power Smash with 60kg at $14. Can do better with the run under his belt.

Dual acceptor. Second run back. First-up after two months 4th of 10 at Hawkesbury F&M Bm64 on November 27 over 1100m, 3.5 len behind Nesrine with 59.5kg at $31. Previously second-up 6th of 12 at Geelong Bm66 on September 12 over 1125m, 3.5 len behind Edges Diamond with 57kg at $4.20. Fitter and looks set to improve sharply.

Recent form sound. At the latest run was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by 0.5 len at Canberra Cl2 December 5 over 1400m on a soft track defeating Cossack Warrior carrying 58kg at $7. The race before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Nowra Bm58 on November 17 over 1400m, nose behind Forcefilly carrying 61kg at $2.60. Worth following up.

Form hard to fault. Most recently made ground from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Queanbeyan Ctry Bm66 on November 28 over 1200m, 1.4 len behind Flying Impala with 59.5kg at $3.50. The race before that 3rd of 11 at Gundagai Cl3 on November 14 over 1180m, 3 len behind Lambay carrying 57kg at $9. Don't underestimate.

Resuming after a break of four-and-a-half months. Finished off last preparation second last of 9 at Canberra Acton Tab Fed Open August 8 over 1280m, 6 len behind Super Extreme carrying 55kg at $10. Previously first up; fourth of 9 at Orange Cupdayspr Bm86 April 11 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Extravagent Lad carrying 55kg at $15. Will take benefit from this outing.

Last start sat on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 10 at Hawkesbury Cg&E Bm64 on November 27 over 1100m, 6 len behind Big Papa with 59kg at $21. The start before that couldn't go on with it; 6th of 9 at Gosford Bm64 on November 6 over 1100m, 6 len behind Crepe Myrtle carrying 59.5kg at $21. Racing below his best and looks tested again.

Most recently 7th of 9 at Canberra Cl2 on December 5 over 1400m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Supairo with 57kg at $14. The run before that led to the turn then faded 7th of 9 at Kembla Grange Prov Bm64 (62) on November 15 over 1400m, 4 len behind Nantucket Island carrying 55.5kg at $21. Not keen on his chances.
