Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 500m at this track. Racing well enough to feature in the finish.

Form has been sound without winning, placing at his last four starts, the latest when third (29.67) over 500m at this track. This looks too tough.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 4 lengths over 500m at this track in a handy 29.26, beating Malcolm Bosh. Excellent record from this trap, including three wins. Go well.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 500m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is his race.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional and gave a sight but found one better when runner up at this track clocking 29.36. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Go close on his best form.
