Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Marketplace at Alexandra Park over 2700m in a 3yo on April 25 at $3.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second behind Marketplace at this track over 1980m in a 3yo CG on May 9 at $16.30. Go well again.

Fair last start; 6th (Fr1) over 1980m at this track, beaten 15 m by Marketplace (2:24.60) in 3yo CG on May 9 at $5.90. Showed ability the race before when he posted a big 13 m win as favourite (Fr1) at Ascot Park Raceway (2:38.20) beating Flashpoint in 3yo CG on April 27 at $1.90. First four hope.

Three-year-old gelding racing in terrific form. Won his last two outings at this track and Alexandra Park. Last start won by 2 m as favourite (Fr9) at this track (2:24.60) beating Got The Chocolates in 3yo CG on May 9 at $1.20. Star gelding who will be very hard to beat again.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
