Drops back in trip after finishing 8th of 8 at Oaklawn Park over 1710m on 21 Mar, beaten 13.4L with 50.7kg at $15. Previous two runs at this distance saw him finish well back, including an 8th of 11 at $41. Blinkers go on but yet to place in five starts. Needs to lift on recent form but can improve with the gear change.
