Form slipped last start when she finished last over 270m at Dunstall Park beaten 11 lengths (17.01) behind Wicky Buddy in a D1 on September 30. Not keen, needs to lift.

In the money at Doncaster at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 275m. Won't find this much harder. Right in the mix.
