Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.5 lengths third (29.84) over 515m at this track. Has ability and among the chances.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (30.15) over 515m at Gosford. Has a decent strike-rate off the draw and can measure up.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (30.58) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4.5 lengths eighth. Yet to win but has placed five times from this draw. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Lifted to win two runs back and scored again last start over 515m at this track (30.27,) beating Drink Twisties. Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.

Was out of placings last time (30.37) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing seventh and beaten 10 lengths. Has two wins and two placings from eight starts from the draw. Tough line-up and may struggle.
