Good effort to win last start by 1.3 lengths over 388m at Gosford in a handy (22.30), beating Look For Lionel. Will find this a bit tougher, happy enough to avoid.

Has hit the frame the last couple. Finished third at this track latest but prior to that clocked a slick 22.93 over 400m finishing second at this track. Can measure up with a repeat run two back.

Comes off a (23.03) win last time, scoring by a nose in a Grade 5 over 400m at this track. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Tough field and looking to others this time.
