Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing second behind Dontletfearstopya at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 52 on January 28 at $16. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Protagonist at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 58 on February 6 at $11. Rates highly.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 8th (Fr10) over 1609m at Menangle was 7th-13.07 at the bell, beaten 19 m by Lexys On Song (1:52.10) in 4yo+ No NR on February 7 at $13. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 6 m win as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at this track (1:53.70) beating Ohwhatiwouldgive in 4yo+ NR up to 55 on January 28 at $1.95 at the bell was leading 7.08.
