Didn't finish the race off when fifth after lobbing behind the speed 3.3L at Port Macquarie Bm74 over 1106m. Ran on well and looked a winning chance but was edged out into third spot 1.8L at Port Macquarie Bm66 over 1100m Soft 6.

Had the run of race behind the leaders and just missed for second 0.1L at Grafton Bm74 over 1190m. Nice ride to sit poised to bounce on the leaders but could only trail into third 2.9L at Eagle Farm Cg&E Bm65 over 1200m.

Just off the leaders at the 400m however couldn't make up ground from fifth 2.7L at Lismore Ctry Bm58 over 1310m. Made good progress from back in the field to run fourth 6L at Ballina Bm66 over 1000m Heavy 10. Won second-up in the past.
