Back from a break. At $28.00 improved late to finish 5th last start at this track and drawn nicely. Does take a while to get into stride. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Back from a 42 week break. Started $36.00 and faded away to finish 12th last run at this track. Likely to settle back in the field. Appears tested.

Started $2.62 and folded up in the straight when 5th last run at Belterra Park and back to a shorter distance. Have to respect the recent Jr Thomas Drury form. Watch betting.
