Did well when 3rd last time at Hamilton. First start for a new trainer. Has early speed and positions nicely. Not in this.

First run back from a break. Odds of $2.50 and lacklustre showing when 7th last time at Pontefract but fitter for debut run. First appearance for a new trainer. Would rather look at others.

Started $67.00 and fairly underwhelming when 8th last time at Pontefract but having second race start. Up against a higher level of opposition. Entitled to be a big price.

Solid effort when winning by 3/4L last start at Thirsk but competing at a higher class. Has not missed the placings this preparation in 2 attempts. Small possibility.

At $13.00 average at best when 8th last time at York but was on debut last time. Racing for a new trainer but competing in a higher grade. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely.
