Improved sharply when third behind Osti In Fashion at Goulburn last start over 350m (20.53). Good beginner who shouldn't be far away in the run.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.00) in a Grade 5, finishing a 16 length seventh. Has performed well off the draw with a win and five places from eight starts. Others rate better this time.
