Form reads well, with it finishing not far off the winner at Te Rapa last time, in its first run at middle distance. Can overcome wide draw, with long run to the first bend over this distance at Whanganui

F: 23421B(4)W(59.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )

This is a very promising 3yo gelding. Stepped up to middle distance two back, despite coming out of the outside gate at Tauherenikau two weeks ago, it strode clear to win comfortably. One to follow

Here's an interesting runner. Given it beat Blue Jeanie at its last start at the end of last year, and that went on to bolt in against Don Pedro in its next start, it provides an interesting form-line
