Last start was well back in the run when 5th (Fr7) over 2030m at this track was 9th-16.6 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Grosso Naso (2:26.80) in NR up to 70 on December 5 at $41. Before that, a good run when 3rd (Fr2) over 2030m at this track was 6th-8.14 at the bell, beaten 3 m by Princess Mickayla (2:27.20) in 3yo+ NR up to 70 on November 21 at $6. This looks winnable.
