Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 2 length second (29.93) over 500m at this track last time. In form and another win would not surprise.

Comments

Was safely held fresh from a break when fifth (29.77) at this track over 500m. Has started four times second-up for a win and a placing. Forgive fresh run. Shapes as a key chance this time.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just a neck into second over 500m at this track. Heading the right way looks well placed to take this out.
