Solid run when a close second after a quick start, behind My High Peak at Maryborough over 2190m in a NR up to 49 on January 17 at $3.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing second behind Hard Rock Angel at Geelong over 1609m in a NR up to 49 on January 24 at $2.90. Could be there at the business end.

Last start was well beaten into third after a quick start, behind Dossier at Cranbourne over 2080m in a NR up to 49 on January 26 at $1.80. Performed better the start before where he won by 8 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr5) at Maryborough (2:46.20) beating Kalarney Prince in NR up to 49 on January 17 at $2. Strong claims.

Didn't do much last time out, was well beaten after breaking at Cranbourne on January 26. Before that 6th (Fr1) over 2190m at Shepparton, beaten 24 m by Majestic Charma (2:46.50) in NR 50 to 56 on January 14 at $61. Others read better. Form not up to scratch.
