Good effort to score just four days ago over 400m at this track by 4.5 lengths in a Grade 5. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Comments

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (22.70) at this track over 400m. Found one better last time. Looks well placed and is worth following up.

Showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 400m in 22.47, claiming a Grade 5 by 1.75 lengths. In winning form now and looks a major threat.

Good effort to win last start by 4 lengths over 400m at this track in a handy (22.54), beating King Of Asgard. Will find this a bit tougher, likely to find this too tough.

Good performance after tracking the speed to win by 2.25 lengths at this track over 400m (22.53) beating Tralee Rogue in Grade 5 on December 1. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.
