Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an A5 at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Latest effort finished 3rd over 480m at this track beaten 1.75 lengths (29.50) behind Geordie Gordon in an A5 on June 21. Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.
