Improved last start with a game effort when 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 m by Memorynimagination (1:52.40) in OPEN 2 HC on September 17 at $1.60. Capable of another big run.

Last start 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at Yonkers Raceway beaten 6 m by Laferraridmanche (1:56.40) in NW15000L5 on September 25 at $7.51. Two runs back won by 5 m (Fr8) at Saratoga (1:56.10) beating Secret Or Not in NW7800L5CD on September 14 at $14.50. Can't recommend.

Fair run when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Corner Store at this track over 1609m in a OPEN on September 10 at $3.90. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Memorynimagination at this track over 1609m in a OPEN 2 HC on September 17 at $2.20. Going nicely and looks sure to be in the finish.
