Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Looks tested in this company.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just a neck into second over 480m at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Cannot be taken lightly based on that sound recent effort.
