Comes off a 14‑day turnaround after a solid 2nd at Hawthorne over 1509m on 10 May, beaten 1L in Maiden Claiming 70 with 56.5kg after settling 3rd throughout. Prior Hawthorne run at 1609m on 26 Oct was also 2nd in the same grade, beaten 0.8L at $11. Track record reads 0-3-0 from 7 and distance record 0-2-0 from 5, so he tends to find the frame. With blinkers on and barrier 4, can feature with the right run.
