Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start pulled up at this track on July 4 over 1980m. The start before 5th (Fr2) over 2000m at this track, beaten 14 m by Ocean Of Tears (2:32.40) in 3yo+ on June 27 at $2. Well drawn to make amends.

Well beaten last start by Rockingood, a rival who he faces again; when 18 metres seventh at this track over 1980m in a 3yo+ race on July 18. Not keen.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Classie Linc at this track over 2600m in a 3yo+ on July 4 at $18. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second behind Christies Art at this track over 1980m in a 3yo+ on July 11 at $8.20. Each way value here.
