Last start was driven from back in the field when 3rd (Fr4) over 2200m at this track was 3rd-4 at the bell, beaten 2.25 m by Go The Red (2:40.40) on October 18 at $10. Two runs back 4th (FT) over 2200m at this track, at the bell was 4th-3.2 beaten 6 m by Maebee (2:44.30) on October 4 at $7.50. Not as keen on his chances in this line-up.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last start. Tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; posted a big 3 m win (10m) at Hobart (3:15.90) beating Moveslikealady in on October 11 at $21 at the bell was 3rd-14.8. The race before was not as impressive when beaten by 4 m finishing fifth after being driven well back, behind Ray Dan at Hobart over 2090m on September 20 at $26. Not keen.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Maebee at this track over 2200m on October 4 at $8. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind Imperial Laz at Hobart over 2090m on October 16 at $3.40. One of the key runners.
