Turned in a fair debut run over 520m at Wentworth Park where he settled off the pace and battled on to finish fifth (30.39) and beaten 10 lengths. Should be further improved. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Last start finished fourth over 450m at Maitland, beaten 7 lengths (25.82) behind Our Boy Noah in a Maiden on October 26. Should be around the mark.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (30.74) over 520m at Richmond. Jumps from a wide draw. Prefer others.
