Failed to threaten last time at this track. Can make a comeback and has a nice advantage with a good draw. Form has been improving over recent runs. One of the punters top hopes.

Was $6.00 and disappointing display when 6th last start at the track but will try to take advantage of the box. Will be positive in the run early. Very unlikely to shake these.
