Three-year-old gelding first-starter by Krupt out of Perfectly Poised purchased for AUD $ 20,000 (Magic Millions 2020 Tasmanian Yearling Sale). Untrialled, so tough to assess real chances. Watch market for a positive lead.

At debut, overraced middle stages; raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 8 at Kilmore 3yo+ Mdn on March 24 over 1112m, 4 len behind The Squire with 59kg at $16. Requires plenty of improvement after a modest debut.

Capable of a better showing. Respect.

BANKROLL (5) on top in the opener. He's started odds-on at both career runs and whilst beaten in both, he hasn't run poorly. With a spell under his belt and racing as a gelding he looks the one to beat. CHAMPINSKY (9) also started odds-on last start when unable to reel in the leader. She'll be up on speed and hard to run down. MARWARI (7) will be on the pace also. He put in an improved effort on a good track last start at Avoca and can go on with it now. RECAP (11) closed well for second at Warrnambool last start and will be running on.
Racing well. Most recently 2nd of 13 at Geelong 3yo+ Hcp (58) on March 19 over 1500m, nose behind Kashiwa with 56kg at $17. The race before that began awkwardly; ran on strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 8 at Sale 3yo+ Mdn on March 6 over 1400m, on a wet track; 4 len behind Lovely Natalie carrying 59.5kg at $12. Close to a win. One of the better chances.

Improver with winning prospects.

Was at very long odds at debut, crowded at start; second last of 10 at Avoca 3yo+ Mdn on March 26 over 1300m, 8 len behind Bay Wave with 59kg at $151. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, ran last of 10 (slowly away; eased down; warning - uncompetitive) at Ballarat 3yo Mdn on February 27 over 1200m, 21 len behind Stromboli with 56kg at $61. Needs to do a lot more than she did on debut.

Leading chance with plenty of upside.

Last start with blinkers first time; 6th of 12 at Warrnambool 3yo+ Mdn Hwt on March 25 over 1700m, slow going 5.5 len behind Deploy And Destroy with 67kg at $26. The start before that 5th of 8 at Colac 3yo+ Mdn on March 6 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 7 len behind Cemented with 57kg at $4.50. Will need to improve many lengths to feature.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 3rd of 9 at Kyneton 3yo+ Mdn on March 17 over 1469m, slow going 0.6 len behind Slessor carrying 57kg at $7. Before that slowly away; 3rd of 13 at Hamilton 3yo+ Mdn on February 28 over 1400m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Bellman with 57kg at $4.50. Genuine chance on the back of the last effort.

Third-up today. Resuming 5th of 12 at Warrnambool 3yo Mdn on February 3 over 1300m, 5.5 len behind Hesket with 56kg at $10. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily with blinkers first time; 4th of 12 (laid in near 400m; shifted out near 150m; protested against, upheld) at Pakenham 3yo+ F&M Mdn on March 10 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Tauty carrying 57.5kg at $15.

Third race start today. At long odds at debut, slowly away; with blinkers first time; 7th of 9 at Ararat 3yo Mdn on March 4 over 1100m, slow going 6 len behind Ice Pick Nick with 56kg at $41. Last start slowly away; eased back early on 8th of 12 at Swan Hill 3yo+ Mdn on March 20 over 1600m, 8 len behind Batahi with 57kg at $51. This looks too tough.

ZAFARANA (13) on top for the Maher & Eustace team. The debut run was solid at Kyneton, closing well to get within 3 lengths. Up to 1600m will suit and she looks to map well from barrier four. RAYZA WARRIOR (4) also looks suited to the mile. His first up run for the new stable at Pakenham was good. PICK UP CHICKS (3) closed off just as well in the same race as Rayza Warrior and ties in well with the top pick also. He'll get back in the field and be charging home. FOXY GAL (7) was sound at her first run back from a spell and is proven at the trip.
Last start wide throughout; 12th of 14 at Benalla 3yo+ Mdn on March 29 over 1606m, 24 len behind Presser with 56.5kg at $26. Before that raced on speed throughout when 2nd of 10 at Towong 3yo+ Mdn on March 12 over 1400m, 1.3 len behind Bring A Dame carrying 56.5kg at $4.80. Hard to make a winning case for.

LUMINARA (10) has finished less than a length off the winner in past two assignments. Form this year has been consistent and is deserving of a change of luck. Gets that chance here. MISS EPERNAY (12) has had plenty of chances but hasn't been too far away in recent assignments. Did hit the line well last time and won't be too far off them. TYPICALLY BRAZEN (13) has been around the mark of late with placings in two of past three outings. Has claims here. SOYOUCANDANCE (5) had a couple of placings to his credit before a battling effort last time. Drawn the middle of the line-up here and is worthy of thought.
Useful type. Last start second last in a small field at Sandown-Hillside 3yo+ (Bm64) on March 30 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Detonator Jack carrying 55kg at $31. The start before that 7th of 10 at Sandown-Hillside 3yo+ (Bm64) on February 16 over 1800m, 6 len behind Castlereagh Kid with 57kg at $26. Ready to win after a solid performance last time out.

LARRIKIN (1) is going to find this far easier than recent assignments in town. Looks nicely off against this lot. Should go close. BIG DARRYL (7) was disappointing at Ararat last week but previous form had been consistent, including two second-place finishes at Kyneton and Benalla in February. This is not strong. Rates highly. LATIN BEAT (2) will strip fitter for first-up assignment at Ballarat. Extra ground to his advantage. Look for improvement. LANGWORTHY (4) has been a consistent performer of late and is nearing a win after past two placings at Moe and Bairnsdale. Has to be respected.
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 Warrnambool 3yo+ Mdn Hwt March 25 over 1700m on a soft track defeating Mathew with 69.5kg at $11. Before that keen and laid out on straightening; got back early 4th of 7 at Yarra Valley 3yo+ Mdn on February 12 over 1950m, 1.75 len behind Jamcra with 59.5kg at $6. Big chance again now that the penny has dropped.

DANEJARAROSE (7) should be near her top following two runs from a break, the latest over this trip at Ballarat behind a recent Sandown winner. Looks well placed and is ready to run well. CAPELLANI (4) worked home well at Avoca last time at first run for new stable. Has since had a hurdle to school to sharpen him up. Won't be far away. DEPLOY AND DESTROY (1) produced a good performance to win from back in the field last time. The rise in trip here will assist. Has to be considered. PUEBLO (5) had a hurdle school before striking winning form at Avoca last time. Now that he's found that form he may be able to go on with it.

STYLISH ENUFF (3) has been in consistent form this campaign. Is deserving of another win and gets that chance here. DIDIER (6) has been racing in honest fashion of late. Last couple at Avoca and Ararat have been solid and won't be too far from the money here. KING AND KING (1) has been through a few stables. Carried big weight at the picnics last time and didn't disgrace himself. This not overly strong. Is worthy of thought. HIT THE MOON (8) was placed here two starts back and performances either side of that had been sound. Looks an each-way hope.
Second-up. Comes off a 36-day let-up. First-up after seven months 4th of 10 at Ararat 3yo+ (Bm58) on March 4 over 1100m, slow going 10 len behind I Am Ready carrying 62kg at $21. Previously second-up 6th of 8 at Fannie Bay Hcp (70) on July 3 over 1100m, 9 len behind Rockatomic with 58kg at $21. Needs more time.

Most recently ran last of 11 (pre race incident; passed fit at barrier; began awkwardly) at Bairnsdale 3yo+ Hcp (58) on March 27 over 1000m, 15 len behind Solitary Tramp with 59.5kg at $67. The run before that came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Warrnambool 3yo+ Mdn Plate February 17 over 1000m in soft going defeating Bellini Miss with 59.5kg at $26. Well held last time and facing tough task today.

Last start slowly away; 3rd of 11 at Bairnsdale 3yo+ Hcp (58) on March 27 over 1000m, 0.9 len behind Solitary Tramp with 59kg at $10. Thereabouts last start and should be competitive.

Resumes off a 48 day let-up. Most recently disappointed for a run near 300m; second last of 8 at Moe 3yo+ Hcp (58) on February 20 over 1017m, 4.5 len behind Magic Drum with 59.5kg at $2.50. The start before that failed to handle going; second last of 7 at Sale 3yo+ (Bm58) on January 31 over 1106m, on a wet track; 7 len behind I'm Cheeky with 62kg at $2.40. Capable of more. Worth another chance.

The run before that wide throughout and laid out in straight; 6th of 8 at Stony Creek 3yo+ (Bm64) on February 1 over 1000m, 6 len behind All Stardom with 58kg at $31. Solid prospects and a good barrier doesn’t hurt.

Recent form sound. Most recently tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 12 at Stony Creek Hcp (58) on March 13 over 1000m, head behind Fight For Victory with 57kg at $11. The run before that rider told to use more vigour; 4th of 8 at Moe 3yo+ Hcp (58) on February 20 over 1017m, 1.75 len behind Magic Drum carrying 54kg at $9. Well placed to take this out.

Before that 5th of 10 at Leeton (Bm50) on February 26 over 1050m, 2.5 len behind Eastern Breeze with 59kg at $4.50. Solid run last time and is a strong winning hope again.

Racing okay but looking elsewhere.

Still likely to struggle after 1.5kg claim.

DOCTOR COTO (5) has been freshened since latest offering on home track at Moe. Looks nicely off against this lot and fresh up is worthy of thought. MYSTERIOUS ART (8) can be hard to catch but last two efforts have been sound. Kept on the fresh side for this. Has claims. KAPARA (10) led them up and fought on bravely over this trip at Stony Creek last time. Is better off around here and must be considered. SPITEFUL (12) is a much travelled galloper that had specking and ran well at Swan Hill when up on the pace. Should be in this for a long way.
