Last start surrendered the lead and finished 4th (Fr3) over 2190m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was 3rd-8.2 beaten 13 m by Mariahs Shadow (2:45.60) in NR up to 49 on March 28 at $18. Two runs back raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by a nose after showing early speed, (Fr4) at this track (2:15.60) beating Melfield Soryt in MAIDEN on March 21 at $31 at the bell was 2nd-4.2. Nicely drawn and gets her chance to bounce back.

Two back was fourth after being driven well back, behind Midnight Pirate at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on March 28 at $9. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.4 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Orama at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on April 1 at $4.40. Has the ability to take this out.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Didn't do much last time out, was well back in the run when 7th (Fr6) over 2190m after racing wide at this track was 8th-20.6 at the bell, beaten 18 m by Better Blue Boys (2:44.70) in NR up to 49 on March 28 at $34. Before that was well back in the run when 8th (Fr7) over 1800m at Globe Derby Park beaten 30 m by Boulder City (2:13.40) in NR 46 to 53 on March 22 at $151. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
