Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.0 len at Goodwood May 24 over 1200m defeating Coming Attraction with 58kg at $3.50. Second-up 15th of 17 at Ascot in the G3 Albany Stakes on June 20 over 1200m, 14 len behind Venetian Sun carrying 58kg at $81. Has ability and is expected to do much better.
