Good effort at double-figure odds last time when second (20.67) over 365m at this track. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Looks tested in this line-up.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 4.5 lengths third but did clock a speedy 20.66 over the 365m journey. Has the ability and expected to go close again.

Resumes from a six months spell and was a winner at only other fresh up run, scoring in 29.64 at big odds over 520m at this track. Look for improvement. Not out of it.
