Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 8th (Fr2) over 2300m after showing early pace at Menangle beaten 35 m by Swayzee (2:43.70) in No NR on January 17 at $34. The start before surrendered the lead and finished 7th (Fr5) over 2790m after showing early speed at Bathurst, beaten 35 m by Donegal Luther (3:22.10) in No NR on December 26 at $23. Worth another chance.
