When resuming last campaign fifth of 10 at Wingatui March 15 over 2200m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Caffeinated carrying 59kg at $18.80. Certainly one to consider.

The race before that won by a 0.4 len at Wingatui on September 4 over 1200m in heavy going defeating Magnastar carrying 56kg at $9. Looking to others.

Before that 2nd of 12 at Wingatui on October 2 over 1200m, on a wet track; 1.1 len behind Ocean Boulevard carrying 54kg at $11.40. Confidence back and is among the main hopes.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming ran second last of 14 at Ashburton on October 10 over 1400m, slow going 12 len behind Mad Max carrying 59kg at $32.80.

First up last campaign fifth of 10 at this track November 2 over 1200m, in the wet; 2.25 len behind More Sass with 53.5kg at $7.90. Will be a lot better for this hitout.

Previously second-up 7th of 14 at Ashburton on April 2 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Staphanos Queen carrying 56kg at $58.50. Will benefit from that run and is worth including.
