Won two starts back over 622m at this track. Last start she finished 5th over 520m at Wentworth Park beaten 5 lengths (30.24) behind Tarawi Brumby in a Grade 5 on July 4. Draw likely to suit. Speedy conveyance who looks hard to beat.

Good effort to win last start by 4 lengths over 630m at Nowra in a handy (36.38), beating Zipping Hopkins. Will find this a bit tougher, in form but prefer to watch this time.

Comments

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 7 length second (36.01) over 622m at this track. In the money last time and looks well placed. Can go one better.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
