Finished fifth last time (30.56) in an A1 over 500m at this track after winning at his previous three starts. Forgive the latest result. Looks hard to beat this time.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 500m. Won't find this any tougher. Hard to beat with even luck.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 5 length fourth (30.74) at this track. Likely to find this a bit tough.
