Nice effort to run into 3rd last run at Epsom and facing a weaker grade. Always seems to find the line well. Definitely worth considering.

Jumped at $12.00 and ordinary performance when 9th last run at Leicester but was a debutant last start. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Suggest watching.

At $26.00 clearly outclassed when 9th last time at Newcastle but having second race start. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Will need its best to find a place.
