Missed the frame last start when fifth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning seven on end before placing two back. Well placed here and expected to bounce back.

Backs up after winning by one length at Gawler (23.04) beating Ray Finkle in a Grade 6 on January 22 six days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and she needs to find another gear.
