Managed to run 2nd beaten by nearly 3L last time at Trentham and going down in grade. Craig Grylls and Peter Didham & Trent Didham are highly regarded when paired. Should go very close.

Displayed a strong effort throughout the race when 3rd beaten by 1 3/4L last run at Matamata and promising career start. Will be positive in the run early. Will attract plenty of interest.
