Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.87) in a Grade 4, finishing a 9 length seventh. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and four minors. Has ability and should feature.

Did a good job two starts back at Cannington to win by 3.5 lengths in 15.90, beating Tori Keeping. Last start finished last over 275m at Cannington beaten 8 lengths (16.68) behind Caribbean Cool in a Free For All on September 9. Not among the main chances this time.

Strong performance to score by 2.75 lengths in a Grade 5 last start at this track, clocking a fast 17.13 over the 300m trip. Can measure up again if runs up to that effort.
