Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resumes off a 41 day letup. Resuming favourite; won by 0.8 len at Kempton Park All Weather January 29 over 1400m defeating Willy Campbell carrying 60kg at $4. Second run from a spell 5th of 12 at Southwell All Weather on February 22 over 1600m, 4 len behind Mr Baloo with 58.5kg at $4.50. Certainly worth another chance.

Second-up. First-up after nine months 11th of 13 at Kempton Park All Weather on March 5 over 1600m, 9 len behind Dingle carrying 58.5kg at $10. Previously second-up ran on strongly from last on the turn and won by a neck at Windsor May 13 over 1600m defeating Global Asset carrying 60.5kg at $2.80. Unlikely to be competitive.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 3rd of 11 at Southwell All Weather on March 14 over 1400m, 1.0 len behind King Of York with 61kg at $13. The race before that 3rd of 8 at Southwell All Weather on February 28 over 1400m, 4 len behind Chola Empire with 59.5kg at $2.80. Not far away last time. Still has a zest for racing and can feature in the finish.

Second-up. First-up after two months 6th of 10 at Southwell All Weather on March 21 over 1600m, 8 len behind Michael Scofield carrying 64.5kg at $51. Previously second-up 3rd of 10 at Wolverhampton on January 11 over 1740m, 4.5 len behind Destructive with 64kg at $126. That run was a bit plain so prefer him later on.
