Won two starts back when well in the market at Q Lakeside over 352m. Last start finished 3rd in a Grade 4 on August 19 over 380m at this track behind On Holidays beaten 5.5 lengths (22.01). Coming out of a very strong form race. Expected to go well.

Hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior was an eye-catching winner scoring by 2.25 lengths in a Mix 5 at this track. This tougher and prefer for a place this time.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (21.92) at big odds over 380m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw and needs to bounce back.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 380m at this track. Other runners look much more appealing.
