Before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 12 in a Mdn at Bunbury on August 13 over 1690m, on a slow track; neck behind Phat Chaps with 58kg at $15. Knocking on the door and can land the knockout blow.

On debut 13th of 16 at Pinjarra Mdn May 13 over 1200m, 7 len behind My Danny Boy with 57.5kg at $51. Plenty of more attractive propositions in this race.

Second-up 7th of 9 in a 3yo Plate at Belmont Park on August 22 over 1200m, slow going 7 len behind Gaintree with 55.5kg at $61. Easier here and he looks an improver getting out in distance.

At debut, 7th of 9 in a 3yo Mdn at Pinjarra on August 20 over 1300m, 6 len behind Cassandra with 55kg at $11. Fitter and can improve.

Lining up for just third start. At very long odds at debut, ran last of 12 in a 2yo Mdn at Belmont Park on July 29 over 1200m, 13 len behind Marcos carrying 55kg at $201.
