Missed the frame latest (22.84) when fifth over 390m at this track in a Grade 5. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and four minors. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Had been racing in honest fashion before missing the frame last time out, finishing seventh (23.03) at Shepparton. Drawn a inside box but will need the breaks to go his way.
