Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.

Returned from break made ground from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Warrnambool 4yo+ Mdn on October 28 over 1000m, nose behind Shallow with 57.5kg at $5.50. Leading chance with plenty of upside.

VIVIANE (11) returns from a four month spell and gets her easiest assignment to date. Is 1/2 in the placings fresh and was consistently thereabouts against much tougher opposition last preparation. Should be winning this. MADAME LOUVRE (9) hit the line strongly when on debut last preparation and then turned in a sound effort when favourite at Cranbourne, before going for a spell. From a smart stable and is worth some serious thought. BIRTHDAY SUIT (8) ran on gamely from the tail of the field when on debut here over the journey. Expected to take natural progression from that run and gets a slight weight relief. Top three prospect. ENUFF ROSES (7) went down by a nose when returning off a big break at Warrnambool. Has the pace to offset the wide draw. In the mix. THE SUPERINTENDENT (4) steps out on debut after two sound trial placings - including a win. Draws nicely. Keep safe.
Resuming. Finished off last preparation inconvenienced near 50m; third of 9 at Pakenham 3yo+ Mdn February 25 over 1600m, 1.2 len behind Zoutellus carrying 59.5kg at $8. On debut second last of 9 at Geelong 4yo+ Mdn January 7 over 1435m, soft track; 8 len behind Mahashakti carrying 59.5kg at $21. Look for a bold run.

Third race start. First start hampered near 500m; ran last in a small field at Cranbourne 3yo Mdn on April 30 over 1200m, 8 len behind Sinead with 58kg at $41. Went for a break before returning second last of 13 at Sale 4yo+ Mdn on October 24 over 1400m, on a slow track; 12 len behind Shezadandi with 59.5kg at $101. Unlikely to threaten.

Went for a break before returning second last of 9 at this track 3yo+ Mdn Plate on October 27 over 1100m, 13 len behind Snappy Secret with 57kg at $31. One of the chances.

Resuming after a lengthy spell. Only one run when slowly away; settled back and ran on when with blinkers first time; 7th of 11 at Sale 2yo Mdn on March 16 over 1212m, 4 len behind Camaguey with 58kg at $21. Win would surprise.

Three-year-old colt who is first starter by Street Boss out of Gondokoro. Not seen publicly in trials. Expected to measure up.

Resuming after a five months break. Finished off last preparation sixth of 11 at this track 3yo Mdn June 20 over 1400m, soft track; 1.5 len behind Write The Score with 56kg at $9. On debut shifted in on straightening and became unbalanced; second of 10 at Ballarat Synthetic 3yo Mdn Plate June 7 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Full Probe carrying 56kg at $4.50. Looks a key runner while fresh.

UNFORGIVEN (8) is a lightly raced son of Snitzel who returns a gelding. Trialled soundly at Cranbourne in the lead up and showed enough last campaign to suggest he will be right in this. Top pick. ENDLESSLY (9) stuck on gamely when beaten by 1.6L in her last run here before going for a spell. From a smart barn. Expect a bold showing. BUCKLAND ABBEY (1) turned in a solid performance at Pakenham before going to the paddock. Is 2/4 in the placings and is worth some thought. SWAHILI (7) is a Street Boss colt who faces the starter for the first time. Draws nicely and is worth keeping safe.
Resumes from a spell. Finished off last preparation ninth of 11 at Wangaratta 2yof Mdn June 3 over 1170m, soft track; 5 len behind Widaad carrying 57kg at $13. On debut slowly away and disappointed for a run on straightening; fourth of 9 at this track 2yo F Mdn May 16 over 1100m, soft track; 3 len behind All About Eve with 57kg at $17. Prefer to see how she returns.

The run before that slowly away; 3rd of 11 at Geelong 3yo F Mdn on September 17 over 1125m, 4 len behind Star Waltz with 57kg at $10. Solid prospects and a good barrier doesn’t hurt.

At debut, blundered at start and poor recovery; 8th of 11 at Mornington 3yo Mdn on October 18 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Fashion Avenue with 56kg at $8. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.

Was well-supported at debut, slowly away and held up near 200m; 3rd of 12 at Mornington 3yo+ Mdn on October 18 over 1200m, 2 len behind Funky Me with 55.5kg at $3.80. Encouraging signs on debut and another big run is likely.

DE LA FAYETTE (1) is yet to hit the frame in her five career starts but has not been disgraced. Draws low and is ideally placed to shed the maiden tag. Top pick. LUNA CAT (5) was a complete forgive when fresh on a Heavy surface. Showed enough on debut at Cranbourne last preparation to suggest she is more than capable of giving this a good shake. Serious chance. EXTREME EMOTION (2) boxed on gamely when debuting here over 1300m, holding on to finish 2.6L away from the winner in third. Will take benefit from that hit-out and is not without a winning hope. SHOAL BAY (10) caught the eye when hitting the line strongly for third on debut at Mornington. Draws to settle closer. In the mix.
Jumped at a huge quote at debut, slowly away; second last of 10 at Mortlake Mdn Plate on October 31 over 1100m, on a slow track; 8 len behind Rippa Buzz carrying 57.5kg at $51. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.

Tricky assignment.

CELTIC GLORY (7) drops back significantly in class to contest this. Was well beaten last time by a smart one in the G3 Carbine Stakes at Flemington. Placed in Listed grade last campaign and is ready to break through. REGAL VALOUR (9) ran on gamely from the tail of the field to finish in the placings on debut at Hamilton. Expected to take improvement second-up. Top three prospect. TRUST IN A GALE (11) hit the line nicely when fresh to nab a placing. Drawn to settle closer this time and is worth some thought. PURE KIRRA (4) showed good early speed when returning and stuck on well to finish a length away in second. Worth keeping safe.
Resumes racing after a long spell. Only one run when won by 0.5 len at Murray Bridge 3yo+ Mdn September 30 2020 over 1600m on a soft track defeating Muffla carrying 56kg at $3.50. Likely to feature here. One for one and plenty of upside.

Second-up held ground to the line 3rd of 13 at Ballarat 3yo+ (Bm64) on November 1 over 1400m, 4 len behind Perfect World carrying 59kg at $13. Should be right in the finish again. Going well.

Going well. At the latest run favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 2 len at Kilmore 3yo+ Mdn October 29 over 1462m on a rain affected track defeating James The Great carrying 59.5kg at $2.60. Before that keen; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 7 at Wodonga 3yo+ Mdn on October 17 over 1400m, slow going 0.8 len behind Aremberg with 59.5kg at $2.10. Maiden winner last start and worth including.

Second-up settled well back; won by a head at Mortlake Mdn Plate October 31 over 1300m in soft going defeating Opicina carrying 57.5kg at $13. Genuine contender who finds a suitable race.

Comes here off a 43-day let-up. Most recently shifted in near 600m and failed to handle going; ran last of 12 at Kilmore 3yo+ F&M (Bm58) on September 28 over 1200m, 14 len behind Brownie with 62kg at $9. The run before that eased back early on 5th of 7 at this track 3yo+ Hcp (C1) on September 15 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Marimenko with 55.5kg at $26. Nice draw but others preferred.

The run before that eased back early on 5th of 7 at this track 3yo+ Hcp (C1) on September 15 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Marimenko with 55.5kg at $26. Nice draw but others preferred.
At the latest run hampered near 400m; ran last of 11 at Benalla 3yo+ (Bm58) on October 25 over 1406m, 5 len behind Donndubhan with 54kg at $101. Before that disappointed for a run near 100m; second last of 10 at Avoca (Bm52) on October 16 over 1200m, slow going 5.5 len behind Next Generation with 55kg at $11. Needs plenty of luck.

SCHUHBECK (5) arrives here third up from a break and ready to peak again off the good maiden win last time. Improved nicely to get off the mark there and doubt that he goes backwards now. AROUND THE HORN (1) brings a big profile to the race. Debut winner and put straight away by a strong stable. No shock to see him prove smart. SOLD THA CAR (2) was a good fresh winner and about as good when placed last time. Should be around the mark again along with KISS ME IF YOU CAN (7) who is another one coming here off a maiden win last time. Dominant performance and would think that she measures up.
Useful gelding. Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Last start raced wide without cover; in a small field at Sale 3yo+ (Bm78) on October 6 over 1006m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind The Gauch with 61kg at $8.50. Before that raced four wide; 6th of 9 at Moonee Valley in the G2 Mitty's McEwen on September 4 over 1000m, slow going 3 len behind The Inferno carrying 58.5kg at $81. Drawn well and is among the chances.

Resuming after a five months break. Finished off last campaign eased near 1000m and got its head up; fourth of 13 at Sandown-Hillside 3yo+ (Bm84) June 12 over 1300m, in the wet; 6 len behind Sir Kalahad with 53kg at $7.50. Previous preparation first-up won by 1.3 len (began awkwardly) Werribee 3yo+ (Bm64) December 30 over 1110m defeating Turquoise Hope with 56kg at $9. Form shown last campaign makes for good reading. Big threat.

Useful type. Most recently raced wide without cover and disappointed for a run near 150m; second last of 11 at Moonee Valley (Bm80) on October 22 over 1200m, 4 len behind Exeter with 58kg at $17. The race before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a long-neck at Ballarat 3yo+ (Bm78) October 10 over 1200m defeating D'jumbuck carrying 57kg at $12. Excuses last time and not far away. Flying prior.

Second run back. First-up after four months struck interference near 500m; 2nd in a small field at this track (Bm78) on October 27 over 1100m, 0.8 len behind Royal Tyke carrying 58kg at $5. Previously second-up ran on from midfield and won by a nose at Albury Open Hcp May 14 over 1000m in the wet defeating Yeldarb with 55kg at $4.80. Strong winning chance second up. Return said he was back in top order.

Useful gelding. At the latest run slowly away; eased back early on with blinkers first time; 6th of 9 at Geelong (Bm84) on October 20 over 1200m, 3 len behind Crestani with 54kg at $13. Before that wide during race; sat on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 10 at Cranbourne 3yo+ (Bm78) on October 8 over 1400m, slow going 10 len behind Huntly Castle with 57kg at $10. Will be saved up for one last crack.

Resumes off a 33 day let-up. Last start eased back early on 6th of 10 (slipped at start; hampered early on; held up near 400m) at Cranbourne 3yo+ (Bm78) on October 8 over 1400m, slow going 2.5 len behind Huntly Castle carrying 55kg at $8. The race before that struck interference at start; 11th of 13 at Flemington (Bm70) on September 22 over 1420m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Excelida with 59.5kg at $9. Happy to risk.

Good little race but the ratings edge is with RUBY STREET (9) who was without a lot of luck last time. Given another nice chance to win one now after starting this preparation in better races. Back 100m may be a little bonus for her and a good tempo certainly can be. ALTAI RANGER (2) will be a part of that tempo. May well need the fresh run but liked his form last campaign and if he is ready to go he is a real threat. BRENLYN'S TROOPER (4) will be at his peak now second up off a strong return. Back in good order. Respect SIR KALAHAD (1) who can get the right run and going well enough to keep them honest.
Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming raced on speed throughout when 3rd of 12 at Murtoa (Bm64) on October 2 over 1600m, on heavy track; 6 len behind Court Deep with 60kg at $6.50. Second-up 6th of 9 at Avoca Avoca Cup on October 16 over 1860m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Morton's Fork with 55kg at $9. Two this prep have been okay but can improve third up over further.

Last start won by 2.75 len at Mornington (Bm58) October 31 over 2400m defeating Tigertiger carrying 62kg at $12.

Off a win and must have a hope.

Comes here off a 30-day let-up. Last start favourite; won by 0.8 len at Echuca 3yo+ Mdn October 11 over 2124m defeating Catskill Mountain carrying 59.5kg at $2.80. The race before that raced wide without cover and vetted - no abnormalities; 8th of 13 at Geelong 3yo+ Mdn on September 17 over 1733m, 7 len behind Not A Problem with 59.5kg at $3.30. Another win cannot be ruled out. Upside that many here lack.

Form hard to fault. Last start 3rd in a small field at Wagga (Bm74) on October 29 over 3200m, 9 len behind Will To Excel with 55kg at $5.50. Before that ran on from midfield and won by 0.8 len at this track 3yo+ (58) October 16 over 2400m on a soft track defeating Full Ahead carrying 59kg at $4.50. Among the winning hopes on consistent recent form.

Going well. Last start carried wide near 200m; 4th of 9 at Kilmore 3yo+ (Bm58) on October 29 over 2012m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Royal Volley carrying 58.5kg at $4.50. The start before that 4th of 12 at Kyneton 3yo+ (Bm64) on October 12 over 1887m, 3.5 len behind Indiana Lilly carrying 55kg at $61. Didn’t fire last start but is capable of better.

Think this is going to set up well for OCEAN HEART (1) and think that she is in the sort of form that can see her make the most of that. Pair of winners came from behind her at Echuca. Five winners came out of the strong race she contested at Cranbourne and another pair of winners have come from the Mornington race she contested last time. Through good races and she appeals given that. WILD ABOUT HARRY (7) and BAZINI (6) are a couple that look dangerous. Both run for smart yards and come here having shown a bit of talent and certainly both have plenty of upside. Can't really say that of LATIN BEAT (8) but he has been racing really well of late and is to be respected.
Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming ran on from midfield and won by a head at Benalla 3yo+ (Bm58) October 8 over 1106m defeating Young Douro carrying 64kg at $4. Second run from a spell slowly away; 7th of 14 at this track (Bm64) on October 27 over 1100m, 4.5 len behind Duchess Of Dorset with 61kg at $21. Slow away in a strong race last time. This can be easier. Fresh win stacks up.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a head at Swan Hill 3yo+ (Bm58) October 26 over 975m defeating Wasabi carrying 63.5kg at $2.90. Before that 4th of 7 (held up several times; checked near 150m; tactics queried) at Horsham (Bm58) on October 17 over 1100m, 3 len behind Highway To Success with 63.5kg at $5. Big chance to go back-to-back.

Useful gelding. Resumes off a 32 day let-up. At the latest run 4th of 11 at Hamilton (Bm70) on October 9 over 1100m, slow going 2 len behind Lady Pluck with 57kg at $5.50. The race before that poor recovery; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 7 at Mornington 3yo+ (Bm70) on September 26 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Cheerful Legend carrying 57.5kg at $3.80. One of the better chances.

Second-up began awkwardly and keen; faded in the straight 9th of 14 at Geelong (Bm64) on October 20 over 1400m, 3 len behind Derive carrying 60.5kg at $9. Drawn well and rolls forward. Has a hope.

Off a win but tougher now.

More to come from her. Key winning hope.

Comes off a 29 day let-up. Last start held ground to the line 3rd of 11 (overraced early, middle stages; laid in near 200m; rider told to use more vigour) at Kyneton 3yo+ F&M (Bm58) on October 12 over 1218m, 2.5 len behind The Great Bratski with 59.5kg at $8. The start before that 10th of 13 at Swan Hill 3yo+ (Bm78) on September 10 over 1200m, 6 len behind Rainbiel carrying 54kg at $101. Hard to recommend.

MY YANKEE GIRL (14) has shown nice talent in two runs to this point and clearly she still has plenty more to come. Lightly raced and think she lands in better races than this. ORIENZEL (3) looks a good blowout hope for multiples. No luck at all two back and then won well enough last time to be considered a real threat in this. HAYSTACKS CALHOUN (2) was a fresh winner before being slowly away last time behind a good winner. Can bounce back and draws to get a soft run. NANTUCKET (15) didn't fire last prep but best is good for this while a freshened SALTON SEA (4) has been okay back in Australia and the yard are worth keeping safe at the moment.
