Was out of placings last time (30.94) at Wanganui in a Class 1, finishing sixth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Can hit the frame with the right run.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a seventh over 457m at this track. Might find this too tough.
