Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr8) over 2300m at this track beaten 23 m by Loucasso (2:41.40) on November 7 at $81. Showed ability the race before when he came from midfield and won by 13 m (Fr9) at this track (2:43.00) beating Snap Shot in on October 24 at $5 at the bell was leading 6.49. Drawn favourably and may play a role.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 6th (Fr7) over 2300m at this track, beaten 30 m by Swayzee (2:40.50) in LR on October 31 at $18. The run prior 8th (Fr2) over 1720m at Melton was 5th-6.25 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Smoken Ace (1:58.30) in G3 on September 12 at $6.50. In his lowest-graded race for some time and draws well so could find winning form.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 9th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 9th-16.4 beaten 15 m by Swayzee (1:48.90) in LR on October 24 at $31. The start before 8th (Fr10) over 2300m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was leading 1.71 beaten 19 m by Huxton (2:41.70) on October 17 at $9.50. Drops in grade so look for a better result.

Last start was well beaten into fifth after a quick start, behind The Last Trip at Globe Derby Park over 2645m in a G3 on October 24 at $34. Performed better the start before with a good run when 3rd (Fr3) over 2645m after showing early speed at Globe Derby Park was 2nd-6.2 at the bell, beaten 10 m by The Last Trip (3:09.80) on October 17 at $4.20. Better placed so could return to winning form.

Didn't do much last time out, 9th (Fr9) over 2300m at this track beaten 40 m by Loucasso (2:41.40) on November 7 at $101. Before that was well back in the run when 10th (Fr9) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 9th-16.4 beaten 14 m by Palladium (1:49.60) on October 31 at $51. Needs to find his best.

First up. At the last run he 8th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 3rd-3.1m 2WNC beaten 16 m by Perfect Stride (1:50.60) on July 11 at $9.50. Won a trial and is a two-time fresh winner so may be worth keeping safe.

Last start 4th (Fr7) over 2300m at this track, at the bell was 6th-15.53 beaten 16 m by Loucasso (2:41.40) on November 7 at $31. At the start before 4th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track was 8th-13 at the bell, beaten 3.5 m by Palladium (1:49.60) on October 31 at $21. Draws wide but with luck he can continue the consistent form.

Last start solid effort when 3rd (Fr8) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 6th-9.9 beaten 3.5 m by Palladium (1:49.60) on October 31 at $6. Two runs back raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 1.5 m after showing early speed, (Fr2) at this track (2:41.70) beating Wamboyneinamerica in on October 17 at $7 at the bell was 2nd-1.71. In fine form. Just needs even luck from a wide draw to make an impact again.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield
