Last start 2nd (10m 2) over 2600m at this track beaten 0.8 m by Bettors Anvil (3:14.50) on August 7 at $39.60. Two runs back 3rd (Fr7) over 1980m at this track beaten 9 m by Sacetas (2:24.60) in 3yo+ on May 8 at $11.20. This looks a stern test.

Well beaten last start by Bettors Anvil, who he meets again; when 30 metres eighth at this track over 2600m in a race on August 7. Might find this a bit tough.

Racing consistently. Last start won by a 0.8 m as favourite (10m 3) at this track (3:14.50) beating Wild Willow in on August 7 at $2.60. Draws to advantage and expected to go well again.

Last start won by 2.75 m (35m 1) at Oamaru (3:14.17) beating Borrisokane in on August 16 at $3. Should be in the finish again.
