Good performance when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Ajay Volstead at Albion Park over 2647m in a 4yo+ on May 23 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Ikigai at Albion Park over 1660m in a 4yo+ on May 30 at $13. Looks close to another win.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
