Missed the frame last time but the start prior recorded a swift 31.12 over 545m finishing third at Ballarat. Place prospects appear best again.

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 second (29.88) over 515m at Sandown. Found one better last time. Looks well placed and is worth following up.

Hit the frame at Wagga last time when a 4.5 lengths third but did record a convincing 30.07 over the 525m journey. Looks an each way chance again here.
