Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track beaten 30 m by Little Rocket Man (1:49.20) in NW12501L4 on October 2 at $34.80. Showed ability the race before when he won by 4.5 m (Fr7) at Scioto Downs (1:51.20) beating Real Thriller in HGNW8001L4 on September 19 at $9.20. Should be right in the finish.

Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Admiral Hill at Scioto Downs over 1609m in a OPEN on September 19 at $55.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Carbine at this track over 1609m in a NW10001L4 on October 2 at $4. Chief contender.
