Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3 m second behind Wamboyne Machete at Maitland over 1646m NR up to 53 last start. Before that was beaten a head second at this track over 1609m in NR up to 47 on December 20. Sure to play a major role.

Fair performance when beaten by 4 m finishing sixth after being driven well back, behind Hidden Delight at this track over 1609m in a NR 46 to 47 on December 16 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when a close second after a quick start, behind Frontliner at Maitland over 1646m in a NR up to 48 on December 27 at $3.50. Has the same draw and is a strong contender again.

Two back was well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind Wamboyne Machete at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 52 on December 20 at $126. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third behind Frontliner at Maitland over 1646m in a NR up to 48 on December 27 at $21. Leading chance again.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Sr2) over 1646m at Maitland was 7th-16.2 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Frontliner (2:00.30) in NR up to 48 on December 27 at $6. Showed ability the run before when he won by a head when quickly away, (Fr3) at this track (1:55.30) beating The Irish Eagle in NR up to 47 on December 20 at $5.50. Great chance to bounce back.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (Fr2) over 1720m after showing early pace at Dubbo, beaten 19 m by The Postmaster (2:04.40) in NR up to 55 on December 26 at $51. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into eighth behind War Western at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 52 on December 20 at $71. Not keen this time.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
