Well beaten last start by Magnificent Storm, who he meets again; when 30 metres ninth at this track over 2692m in a G3 No NR race on March 2. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Nine-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track and Gloucester Park. Last start won by 4.5 m (Sr4) at this track (3:12.90) beating Minstrel in G3 No NR on March 2 at $2.60. Hard to knock recent runs.

Returns from the paddock. At the latest first-up run was well back in the run when 10th (Fr9) over 2536m at Gloucester Park, beaten 25 m by Caberneigh (3:06.10) in 4yo No NR GH on September 5 at $8.50. May need the outing and prefer others this time.

Was well back in the run when 4th (Fr2) over 2536m at Gloucester Park, beaten 5.5 m by Star Casino (3:03.80) in NR 80 or better on March 6 at $19. Before that was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 2130m at Gloucester Park beaten 7 m by Minos (2:33.00) in No NR on February 20 at $26. Must improve sharply.

Last start surrendered the lead and finished 6th (Fr1) over 2130m after showing early pace at Gloucester Park, beaten 23 m by Mad Monday (2:33.90) in 4yo+ NR 65 to 90 on March 13 at $10. Two runs back won by 5 m (Sr3) at Northam (2:42.20) beating Heez Good As Gold in 4yo+ NR up to 65 on March 10 at $3.90. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
