Returns from a 34-day let-up. Most recently 5th of 8 at Wingatui on January 17 over 1400m, slow going 4 len behind Penvose Lad carrying 59kg at $23. The start before that 4th in a small field at Reefton on January 7 over 1400m, slow going 3 len behind Say Satono carrying 57kg at $7.50. Likely to find this out of reach.

Second-up. First-up after three months from last on the turn ran last of 8 at Riccarton Park on February 4 over 1100m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Insatiable with 57kg at $25.50. Previously second-up 4th of 12 at Oamaru on July 20 over 1600m, on a wet track; 1.3 len behind Royal Valour carrying 58kg at $6.80. Can do much better this time with the run under his belt.

The race before that 12th of 15 at Trentham in the G1 The Telegraph on January 3 over 1200m, on a slow track; 6 len behind First Five with 58.5kg at $149.10.

Recent form sound. At the latest run 4th of 11 at Riccarton Park on January 24 over 2000m, on rain affected going; 1.75 len behind Noble Knight carrying 53kg at $3.90.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up ran last of 10 at Riccarton Park on January 24 over 1400m, in the wet; 11 len behind Graeme John with 58kg at $3.40. Second run from a spell favourite; won by a head at Riccarton Park February 4 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Miss Emerald with 57kg at $3.30. Profiles nicely. Rates highly and can play a major role.
