When resuming last campaign second of 13 at Phar Lap Racecourse June 10 over 1200m, on rain affected going; a neck behind Moon Money carrying 54kg at $4. Draws okay and should be thereabouts.

Most recently ran last of 13 at Phar Lap Racecourse on October 9 over 1200m, slow going 12 len behind Enterprise carrying 55kg at $84.20. The run before that couldn't go on with it; ran last of 8 at Gore on September 21 over 1100m, on rain affected going; 15 len behind Martell carrying 51kg at $21.60. Needs to improve sharply.
