Was well-supported at debut, 5th of 7 at Great Yarmouth on April 5 over 2000m, 5.5 len behind Alpine Trail with 59kg at $2.30. Will take a lot from that hitout and is a key runner.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, 3rd of 7 at Great Yarmouth on April 5 over 2000m, 4.5 len behind Alpine Trail with 59kg at $51. Better for that hit-out and likely to be about the mark again.
