Verdict

Former NSW galloper YOROKOBI (7) has hit the frame in all three runs since joining the new stable and this is not an overly strong affair. Drops back a furlong from the latest outing and should be hitting the line with gusto. SMOKIN REELS (5) just ran into one better here when facing the starter for the first time and will have derived a stack of benefit from that race day experience. Looms as the main danger. MARCH MADNESS (2) has gotten better with each run this time in and looks to be working up to that elusive maiden victory. Include in calculations. COLONEL PARKER (1) has placed one from one around this circuit and is a must for the multiples. NATIONAL GOAL (4) rounds out the selections.

At the latest run didn't do much in the run home; 6th of 8 at Rockhampton Mdn-Sw on December 18 over 1600m, on a slow track; 13 len behind Skilful Artist with 54.5kg at $26. The run before that settled back and ran on when 7th of 9 at Rockhampton Mdn-Sw on December 9 over 1400m, 10 len behind Galvanize carrying 56.5kg at $41. Hard to enthuse.

The start before that 3rd of 9 at Pentland 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on November 22 over 1000m, 4 len behind Chargin' carrying 58.5kg at $2.60. In the right race this time and shouldn’t be too far away.
