Could only manage eighth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (28.84) over 498m at this track. Nicely drawn on the inside but needs to bounce back.

Hit the frame latest (28.71) when third at this track in a Grade 5/6. Strong record off the draw with two wins and two minors from four starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
