Last start finished 4th on January 8 over 300m at Taree Super Track behind Wonder Kid beaten 6 lengths (17.70) in a Grade 4/5. Looks suited here and can measure up. CANYA STYLE (7) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (20.58) last time in a Mix 3/4 at this track. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Cannot be taken lightly.
