Missed the frame latest (19.37) when fourth over 350m at this track in a Grade 5. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and four minors. Looks suited and should go close.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a sixth over 350m at this track. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.
