Missed the frame last start when a 14 length seventh (25.06) at Bendigo. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Capable and may well bounce back this time.

Was out of placings last time (23.19) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.
