Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in his races. Last start finished eighth over 425m at Traralgon, beaten 12 lengths. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (16.94) over 300m at Healesville. Drawn out wide but capable of a better result.
