Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (25.39) at big odds over 435m at Sale. Nicely drawn on the inside and capable of a better result.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 400m at this track. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (19.58) at Healesville over 350m. Coming out of a very strong form race. Expected to go well.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (26.36) over 460m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw and will need the breaks to go his way.
