Most recently 4th of 12 at this track on March 1 over 1400m, 1.4 len behind Josho Hope with 57kg at $38.30. The start before that got back early 8th of 11 at this track on February 15 over 1600m, 6 len behind Otamajakushi carrying 57kg at $36. Not far from the winner last time but this is a tough assignment.

Racing well recently. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 12 at this track on March 1 over 1400m, 1.3 len behind Josho Hope with 57kg at $5.50. The race before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at this track on February 15 over 1600m, 0.5 len behind Otamajakushi carrying 57kg at $9.70. Genuine chance on the back of the last effort.
