Turned in a better effort over 480m at Curraheen Park last start, finishing third behind Microchip in an AA0. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Going better than form suggests. Don't underestimate.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an AA0 at Shelbourne Park. May find this a bit too tough.
