Last start 2nd (20m 2) over 2200m at this track beaten 2.25 m by Jolimont (2:45.00) in 3yo+ on November 28 at $6. Two runs back won by a 0.5 m (20m 2) at Cambridge Raceway (2:43.80) beating Captain Sampson in 3yo+ on November 14 at $5.30. Others read better. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Good run when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Kingman in NZ Cup at Addington over 3200m on November 11 at $17.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 9th (Fr9) over 1980m at Addington beaten 35 m by Leap To Fame (2:20.00) on November 14 at $37.60. The run before 8th (Fr10) over 3200m at Addington beaten 14 m by Kingman (3:54.80) on November 11 at $25.10. Strikes at 50 per cent here so is expected to do much better.
