Fair run when beaten by 4.5 m finishing sixth behind Timeisonmyside at this track over 1609m in a NW12500L4 on July 18 at $4.90. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Sometime Somewhere at this track over 1609m in a NW6500L4 on July 25 at $2.90. Well placed to go a couple better.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.25 m finishing fourth behind Timeisonmyside at this track over 1609m in a NW12500L4 on July 18 at $22.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Around Midnight at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a HGNW8001L4 on July 25 at $7. Chief contender.
