Suited by inside box. Last start finished sixth on August 30 over 300m at this track behind Demonic Spirit, beaten 5 lengths (17.48) in a Grade 5. Capable of taking this out.

Was out of placings last time (17.23) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 1.5 lengths. Yet to win but has placed four times from this draw. Can hit the frame with the right run.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 300m at this track. Others have better credentials.
