Missed the frame last start when a 16 length seventh (23.03) at Ballarat. Previous form sound including a win three back at Mt Gambier. Looks a strong place chance on best figures.

Was out of the placings at final run of last campaign, finishing fifth (26.75) at Geelong before going for a four months spell. Capable of playing a big role.

Comments

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last three starts. Last time out finished 3rd over 400m at Warragul beaten 4 lengths (23.17) behind Dodging Shadows in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win on April 30. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
