Bolted in the stakes race, but while we need to underline the margin was flattering given the opposition "not turning up", he's produced a best of the day performance, and only 0.4 lengths below his resuming run Moonee Valley last prep which was on good ground. Here +0.8 at the 800, before -1.7 in the mid race and -7.4 last 400. Best last 800 and 600 of the day, but the 9th best last 200 with the race in his keeping. Can improve from here and with likely lack of "different form" can remain very hard to beat. We look forward to measuring his progress.

Subsequently: Winner Caulfield 27/07

Very consistent 3yo who made it two from two this prep, and the data suggests more to come off this new PB and first ever best of the day run. While "looking" to have the perfect run, went from -2.9 at the 800 to -5.5 in the mid race meaning a 2.5 length slowdown. Last bit best bit -3.5 last 400 and -1.6 last 200 in isolation. This is his first prep gelded, and of note in his first up Warwick Farm win when -2.9 lengths above benchmark, he blew right out late losing 3.3 lengths last 200 in isolation. Should peak fitness wise next start and this is basic BM78 company, so placed conservatively a hatrick is on the cards.

Subsequently: 3rd Caulfield (after bombing the start) 29/06 and 3rd Flemington 06/07. Winner Randwick 27/07.

Lightly raced 4yo taking on much more seasoned runners and passed with flying colours with a clear best first up run, and only 0.6 from his previous PB which was set 3rd up last time in. What's noticeable in the data was he went around 4 lengths faster than his previous "comfort zone" in the first section going +0.9 at the 800. Increased from there with +5.4 mid race, but then just -3.7 last 400. That's a most understandable "gas out" and another 1-2 length improvement from here will have him very dangerous in most races. A Toorak Handicap looks ideal.

Subsequently: 2nd Feehan 09/09 Moonee Valley, unplaced 23/09 Underwood, before winner Toorak at $26!

Excellent return run through the prism that her Oakleigh Plate is her grand final in a fortnight. -0.1 at the 800, before -0.3 in the mid race and +2.4 last 400. The breakdown was +2.1 from the 400 to 200, before losing 2 lengths over the last 200 in isolation.  8th best last 600 and 400 of the day, but just the 17th best last 200. Last prep she elevated from +1.9 to +5.3 when 2nd up Moonee Valley and a similar leap will see her take a power of beating.

Subsequently: Unplaced Oakleigh Plate and (4th) Galaxy Rosehill. 4th Haydock before winning Royal Ascot Group 1 King Charles 18/07

Back on track after "sinking" in the Ballarat Cup 9 weeks earlier, but the walk/sprint here was against. Just -9.0 at the 800, before +2.3 in the mid race so an excellent 11.3 length mid race squeeze. Last 400 was +0.9, and was hard the fence so no wide lane advantage. A race like the Peter Young in a fortnight over 1800 looks ideal.

Subsequently: Spelled. Resumed unplaced Flemington 08/06 and 22/06 before winner 13/07 Caulfield at $21

We sizzled him from a fortnight earlier when best of the day with +1.3 lengths above benchmark, and while just missing here, the race shape was dead against, and his blistering close was the best of his career. -5.3 at the 800 was 4.6 lengths slower early. -1.3 was a "cruisey" move, before +8.1 last 400 with +5.0 the last 200 in isolation and the 4th best of the day. He's clearly racing very well and can return to the winners list in a grade similar to this BM88. 

Subsequently: 2nd Rosehill 24/02 then unplaced 16/03 and spelled. First up winner Rosehill 20/07

We underline this is just BM78 company, but this four year old has returned in great form now gelded this time in, and here has just failed against rock hard fit ONE DESTINY on the heavy ground. -5.8 at the 800 stalking the leaders, before -0.3 in the mid race and -4.8 last 400 on his wettest ground for the prep. First up at Kenso he produced -1.2 best of the Anzac Day card, and he followed it with -0.5 when 2nd at Scone and -0.6 winning at Canterbury. His all time best is +0.9 at Wyong last September on good ground. Can win again this from here.

Subsequently: Winner Rosehill 20/07

Slow maturing mare who with good market support, produced a clear new PB both IVR wise from -3.9, and her first top 10 performance. Sat 3rd line at the 800 going +0.2 at the 800, suffered a slowdown going -2.4 in the mid race, before -1.1 last 400. Last bit best bit out of a pocket going benchmark last 200 on the softest part of the track which was the equal 2nd best of the day. Relaxes well in the run, and will be no surprise if she can drag this figure up in distance. Off this very basic BM74 class can win again.

Subsequently: Winner Flemington 20/07

After a plain post-stakes we have a late season 2yo that has emerged as a genuinely promising potential stakes horse with this dynamic debut. Stalked the lead going -1.7 at the 800, suffered a 2 length slowdown going -3.8 in the mid race, before an explosive +4.0 last 400, with +3.3 of that just the last 200 with the race well won and the rider easing. With the caveat that he had first use of a deteriorating track, he did manage the best last 800, 600, 400 and 200 of the day, and on adjustments a top 7 performance. That is rare for a 2yo even at this time of year and we look forward to tracking his progress.

Subsequently: Winner Flemington 20/07

Excellent run having to cope with a significantly faster tempo than Caulfield resuming. There was going -11.5 at the 800, whereas here +3.6 so 15 lengths faster race to race! -1.1 in the mid race, before a "collapse" of -9.0. He's run near his all time best of +0.4 when winning at Caulfield last August. The winter championships back at Flemington look ideal if heading there.

Subsequently: Unplaced Caulfield and Sandown before winner Mildura Cup 19/07

Ready! Missed 231 days prior to this prep, but turned up fit with a solid 4th here 27/04 over 1400 in a soft tempo race shape going -11.5 at the 800. He went to SA and found the reverse producing +3.6 at the 800 so 15 lengths quicker! Then here? Back to a "walk" at -16.3 near the rear of the field with leader/winner DASHING getting a "steal" going -11.2. Very strong mid race at -0.6 from the 800 to 400, before a booming +10.0 last 400 albeit on a rock hard straight. Peaked last time in with +0.4 over a mile, and at time of writing is in Sunday's Swan Hill Cup and it looks a perfect race for him.

Subsequently: Unplaced Sandown 15/06, then winner Mildura Cup 19/07

Came from a "nothing" first up run at Rosehill when $41, to going back to what she's best at which is leading at pace. +4.6 at the 800 and that was very fast on the soft ground. -4.0 in the mid race, and -5.3 last 400. Lost 1.9 lengths last 200 in isolation and that strongly suggests a peak run from here. Her PB to date is +2.5 set at Moonee Valley over a mile, but has twice won with +1.1 and the latter was at Flemington Group Matriarch last Cup week. 

Subsequently: 4th Mornington Cup, 13th Doomben 18/05. Stable switch 2nd Eagle Farm 29/06 then winner Grafton Cup.
