Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only second over 480m at this track in 29.08. Racing well and can find winning form again.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th in an A1 on September 5 over 480m at this track behind Double Drop beaten 7 lengths (29.30). Would be better placed in something easier.
