Solid run when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind El Toro Loco at this track over 1609m in a OPEN on March 15 at $7.10. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Disgruntled Carl at this track over 1609m in a OPEN HCP on March 22 at $6.40. Big run expected.

Comes here second-up after a week. Lacklustre first-up performance when 5th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 18 m by Disgruntled Carl (1:56.10) in OPEN HCP on March 22 at $4.60. Cannot entertain based on the effort when resuming.

Been racing well and showed plenty of improvement following March 15 run. Last start won by 4 m (Fr4) at this track (1:56.10) beating Spaaaanzano in OPEN HCP on March 22 at $5.60. This race will be harder than that win. Rough place hope at the very best.
