Solid performance when beaten by 2 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Bettorcheckherout at this track over 1609m in a 2yo MAIDEN on February 6 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Riseabovetherest at this track over 1609m in a 2yo No NR on February 13 at $6.50. Big chance from the same gate this time.
