Good effort after tracking the speed to score in an A5 by 2.25 len at this track over 500m (29.70). That last win was in the quickest time on the card. Stick with her.

Charged out of the boxes with a sizzling early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (30.18) at this track over 500m. Has ability and worth including.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 500m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Happy enough to avoid.

Missed the placings at the final run of his last campaign, finishing fourth over 450m at Oxford on April 2. Yet to win but has placed from three first-up up runs. Looks a significant danger.
