Second-up. First-up after a year came from midfield; 2nd of 12 at this track Bm64 on April 3 over 1000m, slow going nose behind Oakfield Badger with 58.5kg at $4. Previously second-up won by 1.5 len at this track Super Mdn-Sw April 11 2024 over 1350m defeating Make A Call carrying 58.5kg at $2.10. Fitter for that run and will be tough to beat.

Second run back. First-up after four months was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by a nose at Gosford Super Mdn-Sw March 15 over 1000m in soft going defeating Alpine Ski carrying 58.5kg at $2.70. Previously second-up 2nd of 10 at Kembla Grange Cg&E Mdn-Sw on October 26 over 1200m, nose behind Shelstein carrying 56.5kg at $3.30. The one to beat once again.

Comes here off a 36-day let-up. At the latest run sat on the pace when 2nd of 8 at this track Cg&E Bm64 on March 12 over 1200m, in the wet; long-neck behind Wealthy Investor with 55kg at $18. Before that rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 10 at Gosford Mid Bm64 on February 22 over 1200m, slow going 2 len behind Artiebett carrying 55kg at $31. Cannot be overlooked.
