Race comment

Caught the eye defeating Chiquitta 4.5m $1.10 (Fr1) Parkes 1660m (2:02.4) 2R3643 race Aug 2 then handy effort when 10.5m 2nd $4.40 (Fr5) Angel Shark Bathurst 1730m (1:56.6) 3R4853 race Jan 29. Ran a very good 2nd first up and yet to miss a place in 6 career starts; could win this with the right run from the second row.
