Led, challenged but showed great courage to hold on for the win 0.7L at Pinjarra Park Cl3 over 1500m Heavy 8. Under pressure in the lead and had to pull out all stops to hold fifth 2.1L at Pinjarra Park Grad Hcp 60+ over 1400m Soft 6.

Under extreme pressure to keep pace with the front-runners 3.8L at Ascot Tbwa Stallion over 1200m. Never in the hunt and disappointed over the final half of the race 5.3L at Albany Fitzpatrick over 1230m.

Beat a few tired horses over the final stages for fifth 4.9L at Kalgoorlie Grad Hcp 60+ over 1300m. Pressed to make a move but failed to make any impression on the winner 7.7L at Pinjarra Park Cl5 over 1200m. Can win second-up, consider.

Made up a stack of ground from worse than midfield for a top third 1.8L at Albany Rtg 58+ over 1100m. Had to dig deep to get up on the line to win 0L at Albany Rtg 58+ over 1000m.

Tried hard but it was always an uphill battle from settling position 4.3L at Albany Rtg 58+ over 1230m. Found a nice spot behind the speed but did little in the run home 8.1L at Albany Rtg 58+ over 1500m.

Mediocre performance after settling just behind the leaders 5.5L at Ascot Cl1 over 1500m. Driven to the lead but was run down late when second 0.4L at Bunbury Cl3 over 1200m.

Enjoyed a cosy run behind the leaders but only held ground for fifth 3.5L at Esperance Cl2 over 1600m. Led, fought on strongly but was nailed on the line into second 0.3L at Esperance Cl2 over 1400m.

Encouraging run for fifth beating some tired horse late after getting well back 3.8L at Ascot Regional Champ over 1200m. Allowed the leaders to get a head start and didn't run on when sixth 6.6L at Albany Cl2 over 1500m.
