Finished with purpose when winning last start at this venue in 29.83s over 515m and form has been improving over recent runs. Has a nice turn of foot. Goes well and could be a value opportunity.

Nice run when 3rd last run at Gosford and will try to take advantage of the draw. Should muster plenty of early speed. Have to respect the recent kennel form. Watch for a sign in the market.
