Comes off a 22-day break after a clear 3rd at Sonoda over 1400m on 28 Apr, beaten 7L by Siena Sky at $6.5 with 56kg. Drops to barrier 3 today after drawing 6 last start. Earlier turf runs over 1800–2400m were well beaten, so the recent 1400m placing at this track is the standout. Can feature with a repeat of that Sonoda effort.

Back in trip at Sonoda last start and finished 7th of 10 over 1400m on 4 May, beaten 6.8L with 56kg at $5.50 on soft. Prior runs on JRA circuits were well back, including 15th of 15 at Chukyo over 2000m on 22 Mar and 13th of 16 at Kokura over 1800m on 21 Feb.
