Has been unplaced in all five runs this season, most recently finishing 6th of 10 at Plumpton over 5727m on 6 Apr, beaten 19.95L with 71kg at $11 behind Havaila. Last season included a win and several placings, but recent form has tapered. Proven at this track with three wins from six starts. Needs to lift on recent efforts but has place claims if returning to best.
