Missed the frame last time when seventh (30.86) at this track. Prior to that had been racing well. Aided by a low draw but prefer the place this line-up.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (29.99) at big odds over 515m at Sandown. Tends to run fairly well off the tricky draw but will need to find best.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (26.11) over 460m at Geelong. Expected to go very well.

Was out of the placings at final run of last campaign, finishing fifth (35.00) at Sandown before going for a six months spell. Capable of playing a big role.
