Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m fourth behind Dee Roe at Hamilton over 2660m NR up to 105 last start. Before that was beaten 1.75 metres second at Cranbourne over 2080m in NR 70 to 89 on December 28. One of the chances.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following December 7 run. Last start posted a big 6 m win (Sr2) at Melton (2:02.00) beating Telemachus in NR up to 90 on December 31 at $3.30. This race will be harder than that win. Prefer others on this occasion.

Failed to impress last start; 10th (Sr2) over 2650m at Bendigo was 6th-9.4m 2WWC at the bell, beaten 13 m by Bulletproof Boy (3:10.50) in G2 No NR on January 4 at $9.50. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 9 m win as favourite (Fr7) at Geelong (1:52.70) beating Tiger Band Wagon in No NR on December 20 at $1.80. Much better placed so can return to winning form.
