Well-beaten 9 days ago at this track over 1780m, before that 6th (Sr3) over 2190m at this track was 9th- at the bell, beaten 19 m by Eastbro Kozzy (2:41.40) in NR 52 to 59 on January 7 at $71. Not keen on his chances in this line-up.

Two back was well beaten into second after a quick start, behind Uniquely Ideal at Hamilton over 1660m in a NR 52 to 59 on January 12 at $81. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Ittakesluv at this track over 2190m in a NR 41 to 46 on January 19 at $2.60. Is poised to go one better here.
