Stays on a quick back-up after a fifth in a 3yo+ Benchmark 56+ at Moora, beaten just under two lengths at long odds. That was far sharper than his Broome last in a 3yo+ Class 2, where he was wide throughout and beaten over 11 lengths. Has some class relief, but 61kg keeps him to each-way calculations.

Backs up after leading in a 3yo+ Maiden at Kalgoorlie, where he was still in front into the straight before tiring to ninth, beaten three and a half lengths. His prior second to Pembeton over 1617m reads better and the 2kg claim helps, though he is winless with no placings from his tries around 1400m. Apprentice claim and class relief put him firmly in the place mix.

Drops out of provincial Class 2 company after a sound Kalgoorlie sixth over 1300m, beaten two and a half lengths, where he sat handy and made ground despite being unwanted in the market. The start prior on soft ground was plain and wide, but his 1400m record includes a win and three placings. Strongest winning profile.

Had clear excuses when fifth in a 3yo+ Maiden at Geraldton, beginning slowly and then being eased and steadied before picking up late to finish just over three lengths from Beaumont Miss. The Northam run prior over 2200m was only fair, and he remains unplaced from seven starts, but the class drop and 2kg claim give him a better platform. Class drop and claim make him a genuine placing hope.

Returns from a six-week freshening after a plain seventh in a 3yo+ Benchmark 48+ at Kununurra, beaten just over eight lengths after sitting behind the leaders and failing to make ground. Her Broome fourth two back was also well held, but blinkers go on and the 3kg claim helps in easier grade. Blinkers go back on but others make more appeal.
