Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 515m at this track. Looks up against it this time.

Finished in the minors last time in a Free For All at The Meadows when a 2 length second but did run a respectable 30.02 over the 525m journey. Bold showing expected but prefer each way again.

Has failed to fire at the last couple but he does have a good record at the track and trip, including three wins. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Racing well without winning, recording three minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when second (29.64) over 515m at this track. Has the ability to be in the finish.
