Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 460m in a OR at Towcester. Heading the right way looks well placed to take this out.

Comments

Heading in the right direction and looks close to a maiden win. Settling well back last time over 480m at Dunstall Park but wound up late to finish third (28.83). Sure to improve on the experience. Coming out of a very strong form race.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2 lengths over 500m at this track in a handy 29.69, beating Rosie Jackell. Deserved winner last time after finishing in the money two on end prior to that. Can make it two on the trot.
