Form hard to fault. Comes off a 34 day let-up. At the latest run 3rd in a small field at this track on August 8 over 1006m, 4 len behind Readier carrying 56.5kg at $2.10. The start before that won by 2.25 len at this track on July 18 over 1106m defeating Java Buzz with 56kg at $3.50. Likely to play a big role.
