Turned in a better effort over 480m at this track last start, finishing third behind Mineola Man From in an A3. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Among the chances with the right run.

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