Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of five months. Finished off last campaign tenth of 16 at Rosehill in the G1 G Slipper March 22 over 1200m, 5 len behind Marhoona carrying 56.5kg at $16. First up last campaign fourth of 11 at this track in the G3 Bd/Prel Cg February 8 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Field Of Play with 57kg at $6. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. An eye-catching run in the Blue Diamond, he must be a key winning chance.

Third-up today. Freshened for 42 days. First-up raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 0.9 len at Gosford 2&3yo Mdn June 12 over 1100m in soft going defeating Just Legendary carrying 56.5kg at $5.50. Second-up ran on from midfield and won by a neck at Flemington 2yo Final July 5 over 1200m on a soft track defeating Bacash with 58kg at $7. Key runner who is a great chance to measure up again but does drop down in distance.
