Having third race start. At very big odds at debut, 4th of 7 at Fairview All Weather on May 8 over 1000m, 6 len behind Chatterbox carrying 60kg at $51. Last start ran second last of 7 at Fairview All Weather on May 29 over 1200m, 9 len behind Wild Star carrying 60kg at $26. Doesn't look good enough to threaten.
