Last start won by a head (Fr5) at Launceston (2:05.10) beating Sir Nippa in NR 55 to 62 on February 15 at $7.50. A big run would not surprise.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 9th (20m Fr2) over 2180m at Burnie, beaten 14 m by Goodtime Oscar (2:47.10) in NR 60 or better on February 6 at $10. The run prior 12th (FT Fr1) over 2698m at Launceston beaten 30 m by Maebee (3:23.50) in No NR on January 31 at $31. Better than last start and can improve sharply.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 5 m second behind Mr Bondi at Launceston over 2200m NR 63 to 69 last start. Before that was beaten 1.4 metres second again at Launceston in NR 60 to 69 on January 31. Can continue the fine form.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr6) over 2200m at Launceston beaten 20 m by Mr Bondi (2:42.60) in NR 63 to 69 on February 15 at $17. Two runs back 2nd (10m Fr1) over 2180m at Burnie, beaten 5.5 m by Goodtime Oscar (2:47.10) in NR 60 or better on February 6 at $10. Not keen on his chances in this line-up.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by 3 m as favourite (Sr4) held up early, at Launceston (2:04.80) beating Mr Bondi in NR 65 to 74 on February 8 at $3.90. Looks hard to beat again.
