Second-up 4th of 9 in the LR Mitchell McKenzie Stakes at Sandown-Hillside on September 5 over 1300m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Blind Raise with 58.5kg at $8.50. Needs to improve again.

Looking to keep his unbeaten record intact. When well in the market on debut, favourite; won by 0.8 len in a 2yo Hcp at Sandown-Hillside on July 15 over 1200m in the wet defeating Judas Tree with 58kg at $3.40. Last start favourite; ran on from midfield and won by a head in the G3 HDF McNeil Stakes at this track on August 29 over 1200m in soft going defeating Unit Five with 57kg at $3.20. Has done nothing wrong, can improve again.

Second-up. First-up after three months favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.75 len in the LR Mitchell McKenzie Stakes at Sandown-Hillside on September 5 over 1300m on a rain affected track defeating Wolf Gap carrying 57.5kg at $3. Previously second-up favourite; won by 2 len in the LR ANZAC Day Stakes at Flemington on April 25 over 1400m defeating Profligate carrying 59kg at $2.15. Got favours fresh but should get them again - hard to run down.

Last start ran second last of 10 in the G3 Up and Coming Stakes at Rosehill on August 29 over 1300m, 6 len behind Plagiarism carrying 53kg at $15. The start before that was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by 0.7 len in a 2yo Hcp at Rosehill on July 18 over 1200m in the wet defeating Gatineau with 56kg at $8.50. Respecting state switch but this will test.

Second run back. First-up after six months 2nd of 9 in the LR Mitchell McKenzie Stakes at Sandown-Hillside on September 5 over 1300m, slow going 1.75 len behind Blind Raise with 56kg at $5. Previously second-up 3rd of 8 in the G2 Todman Stakes at Randwick on March 7 over 1200m, 3 len behind Paradoxium carrying 56.5kg at $5.50. Given a very quiet ride fresh and should set up much better now.

Third-up today. Resuming 3rd of 9 in the G3 Vain Stakes at this track on August 15 over 1100m, slow going 1.4 len behind Hard Kick with 56kg at $18.

Second-up. First-up after four months 3rd of 10 in the G3 HDF McNeil Stakes at this track on August 29 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind American Eagle carrying 57kg at $17.
