Did a good job two starts back at Hobart to win by 5 lengths in 26.42, beating Dewana Boogie. Last start finished 5th over 278m at this track beaten 6 lengths (16.65) behind Buckle Up Elise in a Other on April 28. Hard to recommend this time.

Finished in the placings last time but the run prior she was a strong winner scoring by 2.25 lengths in a Special conditions race at Hobart and recording a powerful 19.40 over the 340m journey. Hard to top on the time from two back.

Could manage only fourth last time but caught the eye the start prior when she clocked a slick 16.09 over 278m finishing third at this track. Expected to push the clock again here.
