Didn't do much last time out, was well back in the run when 9th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, beaten 21 m by Spunkys Gotsecrets (1:53.10) in NR up to 63 on May 1 at $71. Before that 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 6th-9.9 beaten 2.25 m by Spirit King (1:55.50) in NR up to 65 on April 24 at $26. The ace draw may spark improvement.

Good performance when beaten by 4 m finishing fourth after a quick start, behind Coastal Drive at Menangle over 1609m in a 4-020yo+ 0W/20K Stakes on March 27 at $13. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.4 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Surfers Delight at Penrith over 1720m in a NR up to 90 on April 2 at $6.50. Expected to make an impact again.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Sweet On Lexy at Menangle over 1609m in a 4-020yo+ 0W/20K Stakes on April 25 at $126. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing second behind Keayang Santiago at Penrith over 1720m in a NR up to 65 on April 30 at $4.40. Can make his presence felt.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
