Placed in all three runs this prep, including a close 2nd last start at Gulfstream Park over 1710m, beaten 0.3L by Frosted Punk. Runner-up in three consecutive starts, each time finishing within 3.5L of the winner. Consistent performer with five seconds from eleven starts but still searching for a breakthrough. Can feature with another honest effort.

Has finished well back in recent starts, including 9th of 10 at Tampa Bay Downs over 1609m on 11 Mar, beaten 8.9L at $81. Yet to place from seven career runs and steps up 100m in trip here. Blinkers go on but needs to lift on exposed form. Place claims at best.
