Strong performance to win by a nose at this track over 312m (18.02) beating Brave Ember in Free For All on September 15. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 312m at this track. That followed a win two back in 18.05 beating Flip Your Fifty over 312m at this track. Prepared to risk.
