Eased early when 28.5m 9th $101 (Fr4) Jimison Junee 2170m (2:03.1) R6480 race Jan 18 then beaten 15m 2nd $4.40 (Fr3) Im Ok Leeton 1758m (1:59.6) R4965 race Jan 24. Not hopeless on latest effort.

Ran 17m 6th $34 (Sr3) Salvator Mundi Junee 1760m (2:00.0) R5669 race Jan 18 then commanding winner $5.00 (Fr4) defeating Mach Sam 15m Leeton 1758m (1:59.6) R4965 race Jan 24. Drawn poorly but can't discount his claims on easy last start win.

Back from a spell. Raced wide early when 17.5m 12th $151 (Fr6) Thatswhatisaid NZ Albion Park 1660m (1:53.9) R5996 race Jul 13 then won $41 (Sr4) narrowly defeating Key Largo 0.7m Albion Park 1660m (1:54.4) R6069 race Jul 16. Back from a spell and he has placed 1 from 5 fresh but overall form sound.

Checked at the start when 20.5m 7th $34 (Sr2) Major Roll Junee 2170m (2:01.6) R6580 race Jan 18 then inconvenienced when beaten 23.5m 7th $26 (Sr3) Brobenah Boy Junee 2170m (2:00.4) R5676 race Jan 26. Others rating better.

Race comment

Back from a spell. Raced roughly, checked and tightened during running when 60.5m 9th $15 (Fr7) Celebrindal Maryborough 2190m (1:58.2) C2-C3 race Jan 4 then tired over the latter stages when 52m 10th $64 (Fr6) Crookwell Jake Shepparton 2190m (1:57.5) C3-C4 race Jun 27. First up and unplaced in 6 previous first up runs.

Eased early when 5.7m 2nd $6.00 (Fr5) Regulus Temora 1635m (2:00.6) R5670 race Jan 11 then won $1.60 (Fr4) narrowly over Demeter NZ 0.5m Leeton 1758m (1:59.5) R6170 race Jan 24. Racing well presently and has claims on latest win despite the tricky draw.

Race comment

Tightened during running when 18.5m 6th $18 (Sr1) Major Roll Junee 2170m (2:01.6) R6580 race Jan 18 then beaten 11m 5th $18 (Sr2) Brobenah Boy Junee 2170m (2:00.4) R5676 race Jan 26. Needs to lift a notch.

Race comment

Back from a spell. Handy win $16 (Fr5) defeating Celerina 2m Cobram 1670m (1:56.0) R5155 race Sep 15 then caught the eye defeating Shark Port 2.2m $7.10 (Fr4) Shepparton 1690m (1:54.5) R5158 race Sep 20. Resuming after a break should not pose a problem as he is a proven performer first-up (1 from 2).
