Didn't do much last time out, was driven from back in the field when 10th (Fr5) over 1740m after racing wide at this track beaten 25 m by Khulan Kid (2:05.50) in NR up to 48 on September 26 at $34. Before that 4th (Fr1) over 2270m after showing early speed at this track beaten 4.5 m by Mop (2:46.00) in NR up to 47 on September 19 at $10. Gets the inside draw but this looks far too tough.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fifth after being driven well back, behind Mop at this track over 2270m in a NR up to 47 on September 19 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Khulan Kid at this track over 1740m in a NR up to 48 on September 26 at $4.40. Continues to race well and looks a big chance returning to the front line.

Improved last start with a solid effort when 3rd (Sr1) over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 5 m by Ziegfeld (2:42.20) in NR 45 to 52 on September 25 at $21. Nice effort last time. Building in fitness and has winning claims.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr3) at Albury (2:12.00) beating Bondi Lass in NR 44 to 47 on September 23 at $3.20 at the bell was 2nd-0.8. Hard to leave out on current form. Draws wider but must respect winning form.

Solid performance when a close second after being driven well back, behind Mop at this track over 2270m in a NR up to 47 on September 19 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Khulan Kid at this track over 1740m in a NR up to 48 on September 26 at $5.50. Beaten narrowly at his last couple and could deliver.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow third behind Khulan Kid at this track over 1740m NR up to 48 last start. Before that was beaten 3.5 metres second at Cowra over 1700m same class on September 21. Can play a role in the finish.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
