Well beaten last start by The Locomotive, a rival who he faces again, when 40 metres seventh at this track over 2300m in a No NR race on December 7. Draws the inside but would have to lift plenty to win.

Racing consistently with minor placings at her last two starts. Placed last start 3rd (Fr4) over 2300m at this track was 4th-6.47 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Parisian Artiste (2:47.10) in No NR on December 7 at $10. Before that 3rd (Fr1) over 1730m at Bathurst was 6th-14.76 at the bell, beaten 3 m by The Locomotive (2:04.30) in No NR on December 4 at $12. A low draw sees her as a first four player.

Improved last start with a game effort when 2nd (Fr2) over 2300m after showing early speed at this track, at the bell was 2nd-4.04 beaten 2 m by The Locomotive (2:45.10) in No NR on December 7 at $3.20. Good effort last start and looks the main danger.

Racking up the wins. Won by 2 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr3) at this track (2:45.10) beating Keayang Chucky in No NR on December 7 at $1.95 at the bell was leading 4.04. Two runs back won by 1.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr4) at Bathurst (2:04.30) beating Aldebaran Zeus in No NR on December 4 at $1.35 at the bell was leading 5.57. Won all three heats of this series to take his winning streak to seven and looks very hard to stop.

Beaten favourite last start when second at this track on December 7. Scored the start before at Bathurst on December 4. Rates highly. Gunned down as a hot favourite last week but won her first two heats of the series and is good enough to bounce back.

Was well back in the run when 4th (Fr7) over 2300m after being wide early at this track, beaten 22 m by Parisian Artiste (2:47.10) in No NR on December 7 at $151. Before that was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr7) over 1730m at Bathurst beaten 40 m by Queen Elida (2:06.20) in No NR on December 4 at $151. Hard to have on his efforts through the series.

Well beaten last start by Parisian Artiste, a rival who he faces again; when 25 metres fifth at this track over 2300m in a No NR race on December 7. Others make more appeal.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr7) over 2300m at this track, beaten 30 m by The Locomotive (2:45.10) in No NR on December 7 at $7. At the start before solid effort when 3rd (Sr1) over 1730m at Bathurst, at the bell was 2nd-3.56 beaten 7 m by Queen Elida (2:06.20) in No NR on December 4 at $12. Continues a run of tough draws but is going well enough to play a role with even luck.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Last start raced on the speed and fought strongly; won by 1.75 m (Fr3) at this track (2:47.10) beating Queen Elida in No NR on December 7 at $8.50 at the bell was 3rd-4.54. Awkward draw but is back in winning form and expected to go well again.

Expected Settling Position: Backmarker
