Out of the placings last time but the run prior he was an eye-catching winner after tracking the speed, scoring by half a length in a SPECq at Addington and recording a dominant 16.98 over the 295m journey. Expected to push the clock again here.

Missed the frame last start when sixth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Has ability but this tough and looks a place chance at best.
