Traralgon Race 6 - Trfm Hcp (Bm56)
LULU DARLING (5) obviously didn't have things go to plan at Bendigo. However they have switched up some gear this time to help make her settle. Some other recent form lines were certainly up to this type of event. That said, ALPINOVA (9) is racing very consistently. She came from last her last two and only had one finish in front of her. If she can run the trip she will be hard to hold out. Is backing up smartly. OCEAN'S JEN (4) had a lot of ground to make up at Moe and from this barrier, probably won't need to do that here. Can find her WA form. KADDARI (1) will be getting a sweet run all the way. It seems a nice distance to kick off at.

At the latest run eased back early on 7th of 11 in a 0 - 56 at Moe on October 18 over 1200m, 5 len behind Elly Dee carrying 58kg at $18. The start before that held ground to the line 2nd of 8 in a Rtg 56+ at Kununurra on August 29 over 1350m, 0.5 len behind Matron Samsing carrying 57.5kg at $4. Can improve on the latest effort and is well-placed to take this out.

Before that 9th of 11 in a Bm56 at Moe on September 24 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Legacy Bel carrying 59kg at $13. A big spike in form is anticipated.

Form hard to fault. Last start settled towards the rear 2nd of 12 in a Bm56 at Wangaratta on October 26 over 1100m, 2.25 len behind I Am Algadon with 55kg at $10. The race before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 2nd of 11 in a 0 - 56 at Moe on October 18 over 1200m, long-neck behind Elly Dee with 55kg at $6. Will prove a tough nut to crack.

Previously second-up 11th of 13 in a Bm58 at Terang on February 14 2025 over 1600m, 8 len behind Tennessee Knight carrying 56.5kg at $5.50. Fitter again but prefer to see a return to form.
