Comments

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at his last couple, most recently over 300m at this track in a handy 16.66 beating Carry On Maci. Form from this box is very strong, including three wins. Hard to beat.

Backs up after winning by one length at this track (16.62) beating Analyzation in a Special conditions race on September 7 six days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.

Comments

Caught the eye with a fast early split last time and setting up a 2.75 lengths win at this track over 300m in 16.52, making it two wins on end. In line for a hat-trick. Must include.

Expected Early Speed:Front Runner
