Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fifth (22.62) at this track over 390m. Draws the rail but this will test.

Nearing another win after his success on July 15 at Bendigo over 425m. Last start was second over 425m in 24.57, behind Rae's Rainbow. Some good form emerging from that last run. Among the chances.
