Didn't do much at the last run, 7th (Fr2) over 1690m at Kilmore, beaten 35 m by Olly Odd Potts (2:07.80) in NR up to 35 on April 2 at $31. Before that 4th (Fr1) over 2200m at this track beaten 19 m by Skyz Above (2:43.60) in NR up to 42 on March 19 at $151. Hard to have on those efforts.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second behind Tupelo Beach at Cranbourne over 2080m in a NR 40 to 46 on April 19 at $4.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second behind Over The Line at Charlton over 2100m in a NR 41 to 45 on April 26 at $4. Has the ability to take this out.

Last start was well back in the run when 4th (Fr7) over 1609m at Cranbourne, at the bell was 5th-10.2 beaten 6 m by Master Louey (1:58.90) in 0-3 WINs on April 19 at $41. Two runs back won by a head (Sr1) at this track (2:04.60) beating Midnite Desire in NR up to 37 on April 9 at $19 at the bell was 4th-5.63. Not keen this time.
