Missed the frame last time when eighth (26.24) at Geelong. Prior to that had been racing well. Drawn a inside box but looks tested this line up.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 4 length fifth (25.68) over 450m at this track. Well placed and among the chances here.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 1.4 lengths in 25.54, beating Whodat Jewel. Last start finished 7th over 450m at this track beaten 4.5 lengths (25.72) behind Paw Gusto in a Grade 4/5 on August 21. Not up to this.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 0.8 lengths at Sandown (29.74) beating Hugo Rose in a Grade 5 H on August 10. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.
