Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 350m at Healesville. Hard to have this time.

Missed the frame latest (26.33) when fourth over 460m at this track in a Grade 5. Has two successes and three minors from 10 starts from box 2. Looks a place chance at best.

Ordinary effort last start when she got back too far over 350m at Healesville. Prior to that won easily by 5 lengths at Sale (24.46) beating Lucky Harper in a Mix 6/7 on September 7. Leading chance on best form.
