Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 525m. Last start finished 3rd on December 8 over 515m at Sandown behind Aston Gozo beaten 4.5 lengths (29.74) in a Mix 3/4. More than capable and has to be included.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in his races. Last start finished sixth over 515m at Sandown, beaten 17 lengths. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
