Was out of the placings at his last run before a break of seven months when fourth at this track over 350m. Boxed well and with a good break can sneak into the finish.

Missed the frame latest (20.78) when sixth over 350m at this track in a Mix 3/4. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and six places from 15 starts. Has ability and should be around the money.
