Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resumes off a 42 day letup. Resuming 5th of 9 at Cagnes-sur-Mer on January 12 over 2150m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Tipinso with 57.5kg at $10. Second-up 4th of 9 at Cagnes-sur-Mer on February 1 over 2150m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Maneki with 56kg at $5.30. Better than that recent plain performance suggests.
