Last start 7th (Sr1) over 2200m at this track, beaten 7 m by Taking A Punt (2:45.80) in NR up to 49 on August 31 at $10. Before that, a solid effort when 3rd (Sr1) over 1680m at this track beaten 5 m by Kiavino Stride (2:01.80) in NR up to 49 on August 24 at $6. Has the ability to figure prominently from a better draw.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr3) over 2090m after racing wide at Hobart, beaten 30 m by Binalong Bay (2:35.00) in NR 40 to 44 on August 22 at $1.99. The start before 6th (Sr1) over 1680m at this track beaten 25 m by Gypsy Amour (2:02.30) in NR 50 to 52 on August 15 at $5. Can do a lot better in this suitable contest.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Hungry Hippo at Hobart over 1609m in a 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on August 17 at $41. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Iamahunter at Hobart over 1609m in a 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on August 29 at $7. One of the main contenders.

Before that 2nd (Fr4) over 2090m at Hobart beaten 10 m by Sapphire Gambler (2:36.60) in NR 40 to 44 on August 29 at $13. Will find this a lot tougher.
