Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 8 lengths over 603m at Gosford in a handy 34.95, beating Zipping Desire. Well suited by the draw. Good beginner and should go close off the inside draw.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when second (35.91) over 622m at Richmond. Squeeze draw to overcome. Top-three aspirations.
