Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Party Central at this track over 1609m on June 23 at $26. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind No Notthebuttons at this track over 1609m on June 27 at $19. Could play a role.

Last start was well beaten after breaking at Redcliffe on June 20. Before that, 4th (FT Fr6) over 2138m at Albion Park beaten 7 m by Greased Lightnin (2:36.40) in 4yo+ on June 9 at $31. Draws wide but could make a winning start for the new yard.
