Two back was well beaten into eighth after a quick start, behind Shaq at Maryborough over 2190m in a NR up to 50 on March 16 at $23. Stewards queried driving tactics. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second behind Sea Hunter at Ararat over 1790m in a NR up to 38 on March 23 at $2.80. Should be in the mix again.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished a narrow second behind Wazowski at Ararat over 1790m NR 45 to 50 last start. Before that was beaten 1.4 metres third again at Ararat in NR up to 50 on February 27. Continues to race well and sure to go well.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Last start 9th (Sr1) over 2190m at Shepparton, beaten 35 m by Kualight (2:42.60) in NR up to 49 on March 24 at $14. Two runs back 3rd (Sr1) over 2190m at Maryborough was 5th-9.8 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Shaq (2:39.40) in NR up to 50 on March 16 at $7. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
