Last outing made ground from midfield; ran last in a small field at Warwick on February 20 over 3800m, on slow going 73 len behind Sinnatra with 71kg at $151. The start before that; finished ninth of 14 starters at Uttoxeter on January 24 over 3200m, slow track; 70 len behind Tales Of Bravery with 73.5kg at $151. Looking to others barring a strong market push.
