Won narrowly by a head last run at Sandown and gets a favourable draw. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Carrying more weight than last time. Expecting a strong showing.

Kicked clear when winning by 4 1/4L last time at Newmarket but matched against a stronger field. Should go close.

Was $23.00 and just average when 6th last time at Doncaster. Should muster plenty of early speed. Could not recommend.
