Import that can quicken into the finish. He has been showing his best form around the mile in Australia after unsuccessfully trying longer distances in the UK.

A high class youngster with a climbing stride, he builds into his races and could progress over distance.

Bred from a very tough champion sire that performed best over a mile and a dam that won over 1650m to 2050m in the UK.

Neat strong on-pacer that can give a good kick from on-pace in good to soft conditions. He seems to max out over about 1800m/2000m.

Recent racing prep disappointing. He was the tough gelding against the colts as a 3YO, but his form hasn't carried on since.

Classy looking type with plenty of talent. Now a gelding and he seems to be running straighter than he used to.

Strong tough type that sustains his run rather than quickens. He has produced some strong runs rolling along in the lead.

Tough, solid, adaptable type that can get near pace and fight on over 1200m to 1500m. Has an edge on dry ground and is still racing well as an older gelding.

Adaptable and genuine, he knuckles down and chases hard to the line in most of his races. Seems to max out over about 1500m/1600m.
