Improved last start with a game effort despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr5) over 1680m at this track beaten 17 m by Mary Mourne (2:00.10) in NR 55 to 59 on March 22 at $3.70. Rates highly. Can retain the good form.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Mighty Jolt at Hobart over 2579m in a NR 60 or better on February 28 at $9. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Major Lester at Hobart over 2090m in a NR 60 to 64 on March 15 at $3.10. Can improve. Forward performance expected.

Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Enjoy Life at Hobart over 1609m in a NR 60 to 69 on February 28 at $11. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second behind Peanut Sutter at Hobart over 2090m in a 3yo+ NMT 4 LTW's on March 18 at $1.90. With further improvement can go one better.
