Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Springfield Affair at this track over 1609m on September 19 at $23. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind Our Sunset Delight at this track over 2300m on September 26 at $41. Better performance expected from the ace draw.

Last start 4th (Fr7) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track was 3rd-4.57 at the bell, beaten 6 m by South Seas Rock (1:52.70) on September 26 at $5.

Draws well and looks close to a win.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last start. 3rd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track was 4th-7.42 at the bell, beaten 6 m by South Seas Rock (1:52.70) on September 26 at $26. The run before was not as impressive when beaten by 7 m finishing fourth behind Springfield Affair at this track over 1609m on September 19 at $101. Not as keen on his chances in this field.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 5th (Fr9) over 1609m after showing early speed at this track, at the bell was leading 3.43 beaten 7 m by South Seas Rock (1:52.70) on September 26 at $3.90. The start before 6th (Fr1) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track was 3rd-5.08 at the bell, beaten 7 m by Max Delight (1:50.80) on September 19 at $31. Good enough to overcome the wide draw and win this.
