The canny Coffs Harbour trainer has a good opinion of thedaughter of Dreamscape.
"Personally I believe she is the shining light of the stableat the moment,” Jarvis said with conviction. "We've all got to dream and she'sour dream.
"I believe she's got a lot of ability and while she's notfully developed yet it's all ahead of her.”
Ultimate Dreamer will be out to frank Jarvis's opinion whenshe steps out for only her third career start in the Weddings At The WinningPost Function Centre F & M Benchmark 55 Handicap (1007m).
The filly made an auspicious debut and repaid her ownershandsomely scoring in a 1007 metre Taree 2YO event back on April 28 at thesucculent odds of $21.
Jarvis immediately spelled the filly and she resumed from a199-day break after trialling well when run down right on the line behind CallMe Gus in a 1005 metre Class 1 handicap at Ballina on November 13.
"Tegan (Harrison) got off and said she was disappointed inher ride,” Jarvis revealed. "The filly got very tired over the last bit and wasrun down right on the line.
"It was a very hard run but she came home and ate up and hasdone everything right since. I've only given her pacework but she's comethrough it well despite the hard run. I'm happy with her.”
Ultimate Dreamer is raced by a syndicate headed by Dorrigobased Gary Penfold who owns Ultimate Dreamer's dam, Casino Gal, with hispartner. Jarvis bought a 20 per cent share in her after she was broken in.
"She's got a bit of Zabeel in her breeding,” Jarvis saidafter pouring through her bloodlines. "Down the track she might get overfurther but at the moment she's got pace and we'll use that while we can.”
In a bid to get some weight off the small filly's frame -Ultimate Dreamer was allotted 59.5kg against older mares - Jarvis has booked3kg claiming apprentice Jessica Brookes for the filly.
"Hopefully I've pulled the right rein,” Jarvis added. "She'sdrawn barrier 10 but she should have enough pace to get across and lead if notsit third or fourth with cover.”
