Last start finished last in a Grade 5 on August 25 over 312m at this track behind Celsius beaten 8 lengths (18.54). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Finished in the minors last time in a Grade 4/5 at this track when a 4 length second but did run a useful 18.19 over the 312m journey. Can measure up with a repeat of that effort.
