First-up with a long break and drawn well in barrier 2, he returns with 56kg after contesting 1200–1400m races in 2011–12. His best recent effort was 3rd at Niigata over 1200m on heavy, 1L off Jamaica Joe, while earlier he was 2nd at Nakayama over 1200m behind Tenei Esprit. Fitness is the query after the layoff, but the draw and proven 1200m form give him a workable setup.
