Surprisingly, it didn't win in three starts last campaign, as it's not a bad type. Resumes from a 5 month spell, having trialled twice and the booking of Joe Doyle adds to its chances

Hard to think this Te Akau 4yo is turning out in a R70, given the exciting prospect it was in its 2yo campaign. Still not showing up but giving it one more chance to redeem itself
Consider
13 Magice
F: 213XB(4)W(56.5)
