Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.3 lengths into second over 500m at this track. Heading the right way looks well placed to score.

Racing consistently, including a win three back at this track, before placings at last two runs, the latest when third (16.77) over 270m at this track. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.
