Failed to impress last start; 5th (Fr5) over 2300m at Menangle, beaten 9 m by Layden (2:43.00) in NR up to 80 on April 25 at $18. Showed ability the race before when he won by 1.5 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at this track (2:02.70) beating Fire Fox in NR up to 68 on April 16 at $3.10. Has a low draw and is a player.

Second-up here following a spell. Good run when 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m after racing wide at Newcastle, beaten 1.75 m by Double It Harry (1:53.90) in NR up to 80 on April 17 at $10. Fitter and draws well so another big run is on the cards.

Solid performance when a close second after being driven well back, behind Light Me Up at this track over 1720m in a NR up to 90 on April 16 at $23. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Dom Toretto at this track over 1720m in a NR up to 80 on April 23 at $19. Look for a good showing.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing third behind Wicked Confession at Menangle over 1609m in a NR up to 75 M on April 18 at $8. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third behind Peace Out at Menangle over 1609m in a NR up to 75 M on April 25 at $8. Racing well in the city and looks close to a win.
