Comes here second-up after two weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 5th (Sr6) over 2240m at this track was 9th-19.34 at the bell, beaten 17 m by Frugal Fare (2:41.00) in 0W/15 0K stake on March 29 at $21. Needs to do more. Needs easier.

Four-year-old entire who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start was well back in the run when 4th (Fr7) over 2300m at Menangle was 3rd-4.3m 2WNC at the bell, beaten 2.75 m by Dee Roe (2:44.10) in NR up to 85 on March 1 at $2.90. Strong contender.
