Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Roseanne Ruby at Marburg over 1850m in a NR up to 40 on November 26 at $7.50. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Tulhurst Smoocher at this track over 1660m in a NR up to 40 on December 5 at $21. Can be prominent.

Two back was well beaten into second behind Mister Diamond at Marburg over 1850m in a NR up to 40 on December 3 at $1.75. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Shes Classy at Marburg over 1850m in a NR up to 40 on December 8 at $5. Likely to be there at the business end.

Racing well and should be in the finish again.

Worth another chance.

Finished up last campaign with a win at this track, started this campaign 8th (Fr2) over 1660m at this track, beaten 55 m by Braeview Fella (1:58.00) in NR up to 40 on November 29 at $9. Then last time 5th (Sr3) over 1660m at this track, beaten 4.5 m by Dont Fear For Me (1:59.70) in NR up to 40 on December 6 at $34. Can improve but this appears a bit rich.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
