Has been unfavourably drawn at his last couple of starts, the latest when seventh at Oamaru over 2000m, beaten 20 metres. Great chance to find best form from this gate.

3-12 Motukarara 16Mar25 2170SS $12,000 NON-WINNERS 4U Tim Williams $4, btn 4.1m, wnr Dragonhill , 2:09.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been racing well with a couple of minor prizes to his name recently, the latest when third, beaten 4 metres, over 2170m at Motukarara. Winning prospects.

4-8 Addington 13Sep24 1980MS $13,950 2 Craig Thornley $34, btn 52.9m, wnr Ya Rite Darl , 2:01.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Last raced at Addington six-and-a-half months ago when he finished fourth, beaten 55 metres over 1980m. One of the better chances.

5-6 Addington 14Mar25 2600MS $14,320 NON-WINNERS 3U Kyle Cameron $70, btn 87.8m, wnr Dynasty , 2:03.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Trotted roughly in the score up and was back from its unruly position at the start. Hampered by a breaking runner near the 700m. Trotted roughly final bend when weakening.

Missed the placings again last start, beaten 90 metres when fifth over 2600m at Addington. Must improve sharply.

No form available.

Filly by Imperial Count from Kd Spirit on debut. Expected to figure prominently.

5-12 Motukarara 16Mar25 2170SS $12,000 NON-WINNERS 4U John Morrison $27, btn 14.3m, wnr Dragonhill , 2:09.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished third at Oamaru two starts back then couldn't repeat the dose over 2170m at Motukarara last time, finishing 14 metres from the winner. Finding a few ahead of him.

9-11 Reefton 09Mar25 2500SS $11,790 NON-WINNERS 3U Sheree Tomlinson $6, btn 48.6m, wnr Waterloo Station , 2:14.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Trotted roughly when slow in the early stages. Again trotted roughly in the run home.

Finished 50 metres back in ninth at his latest run over 2500m at Reefton. This looks a nice assignment.

8-12 Motukarara 16Mar25 2170SS $12,000 NON-WINNERS 4U Paul Nairn $27, btn 45.1m, wnr Dragonhill , 2:09.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished 45 metres back in eighth at her latest outing over 2170m at Motukarara. Expecting a much better run this time.

3-12 Oamaru 23Mar25 2000SS $11,500 NON-WINNERS 3U Samantha Ottley $21, btn 0.5m, wnr Harriet's Moment , 2:15.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Improved last start when third at Oamaru over 2000m, beaten half a metre. Expected to go well again.

5-5 Addington 31Jan25 1980MS $13,163 NON-WINNERS MOBILE 3U Robbie Holmes $79, btn 118.0m, wnr Playoffs , 2:03.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke shortly after the start losing all chance.

Tackled a richer race last start when beaten 120 metres over 1980m at Addington. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

6-6 Addington 14Mar25 2600MS $14,320 NON-WINNERS 3U Gavin Smith $4, btn 214.9m, wnr Dynasty , 2:03.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke shortly after the start losing considerable ground. Broke again near the 700m hampering a trailing runner losing all chance.

Comes here after finishing a well-beaten sixth on debut over 2600m at Addington two-and-a-half weeks ago. Looks very hard to beat with that run under her belt.

5-13 Oamaru 05Mar25 2000SS $10,175 NON-WINNERS 3U Samantha Ottley $46, btn 31.6m, wnr Luby's Luck , 2:03.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has raced twice since resuming and failed to threaten on either occasion, the latest when fifth over 2000m at Oamaru three-and-a-half weeks ago. Must improve sharply.
