Resumes today. At the latest first-up run 8th (Fr8) over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 55 m by Terra Sancta (2:42.10) on August 8 at $8. Might need some time.

3-5 Central Southland Raceway 22Mar25 2400SS $17,550 R55 TO R80 SPECIAL HANDICAP Brad Williamson $3, btn 12.2m, wnr Piccadilly Pete , 2:00.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Improved last start with a good run when 3rd (FrU1) over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway, beaten 12 m by Piccadilly Pete (3:00.30) on March 22 at $2.70. Decent effort last start. Has claims based on recent efforts.

Comes here second-up after eight days. Lacklustre first-up performance when 5th (10m 2) over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway well beaten by Piccadilly Pete (3:00.30) on March 22 at $7.60. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

6-6 Wyndham Raceway 14Mar25 3200SS $22,375 R55 TO R80 SPECIAL Nathan Williamson $9, btn 14.9m, wnr Wag Star , 2:00.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Last start 6th (10m 1) over 3200m at this track, beaten 14 m by Wag Star (3:59.20) on March 15 at $8.60. Two runs back 2nd (20m 1) over 2700m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 10 m by Betterthancash (3:23.90) on March 8 at $10.10. Needs to do more. This looks a far sterner test.

1-5 Central Southland Raceway 22Mar25 2400SS $17,550 R55 TO R80 SPECIAL HANDICAP Matthew Williamson $3, won by 2nd Shepherds Delight , 2:00.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Last start won by 1.4 m (10m 1) at Central Southland Raceway (3:00.30) beating Shepherds Delight in on March 22 at $3.30. Capable of going well again.

Last start won by a 0.5 m (20m 3) at this track (3:59.20) beating American Me in on March 15 at $4.90. Can measure up again.

2-6 Wyndham Raceway 14Mar25 3200SS $22,375 R55 TO R80 SPECIAL Blair Orange $5, btn 0.5m, wnr Wag Star , 2:00.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Returned to racing last start with a good run when 2nd (20m 2) over 3200m at this track, beaten 0.5 m by Wag Star (3:59.20) on March 15 at $4.80. Sure to run well.

Resumes. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into tenth behind Republican Party at Alexandra Park over 3200m on December 31 at $28.40. Sure to play a major role.

3-6 Wyndham Raceway 14Mar25 3200SS $22,375 R55 TO R80 SPECIAL Matthew Williamson $7, btn 3.2m, wnr Wag Star , 2:00.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Over-raced middle stages.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Betterthancash at Ascot Park Raceway over 2700m on March 8 at $8.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind Wag Star at this track over 3200m on March 15 at $6.50. Rates highly and deserves another chance.

10-10 Gore Raceway 27Dec24 2700SS $24,125 R50 TO R80 SPECIAL Mark Hurrell $9, btn 79.7m, wnr Pinseeker , 2:00.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Slow in the early stages. Hampered rounding the final bend.
