Lining up for just third start. At debut, 6th of 9 at Marseille-Borely on April 22 over 1700m, 6 len behind Kourpluvix carrying 56kg at $10. Last start 3rd of 11 at Marseille-Borely on May 9 over 2000m, 1.2 len behind Fleur De Lis with 58kg at $33. Coming along nicely and should be right in the mix again.
