Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr1) over 1690m after showing early speed at Shepparton was leading by.7m on the pegs at the bell, beaten 5 m by Rowdy Christian (2:04.50) in 4yo+ 0-4 WINS on April 22 at $4.20. Showed ability the run before when he won by 1.1 m (Sr1) at Maryborough (2:04.10) beating Jilliby Justify in 4yo+ MAIDEN on April 2 at $6.50 at the bell was leading 1.4. Has claims.

Didn't do much last start, broke in score up and was out of position at the start 6th (Fr3) over 1650m after racing wide at Bendigo was 4th-4.74 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Heavens Gift (1:58.40) in 4yo+ 0-4 WINS on April 9 at $31. Before that 8th (Sr2) over 1650m at Bendigo was 7th-11m on the pegs at the bell, beaten 13 m by Lorimermajor (1:58.40) in NR 50 to 55 on March 12 at $61. Hard to make a case.

Didn't do much last start, 10th (Fr3) over 1720m at Melton, beaten 30 m by Poppy Wah Wah (2:00.10) in NR 60 to 69 on April 12 at $126. Before that 4th (Sr5) over 1720m at Melton, beaten 3.5 m by Bona Khan (2:05.20) in NR up to 55 on April 4 at $26. This looks tough.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
