Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but found one better when clocking 29.29 over 480m at this track. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Finished in the money latest and looks close to a win. Settled off speed early and held position to finish third (17.19) at this track over 275m. Likely to be further improved. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 4.5 lengths fifth (29.36) over 480m at this track.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional and gave a sight but found one better when runner up at this track clocking 29.28. Has an excellent 28.55 best time at this course and distance. Worth including.

Chases back to back wins after scoring over 480m at this track in 29.14, set up by a sizzling early sectional. Looks the one to beat again.
