Scored handily over Everything Happens 2m $2.80 (Fr1) Penrith 1720m (1:56.5) R6879 race Feb 6 then safely held when 9.7m 5th $8.00 (Sr2) Young Rooster Bankstown 1740m (1:58.8) R5675 race Feb 14. Even run last start but fitter now and could be in the finish here with further improvement.

Race comment

Battled on gamely defeating Arma The Gun 0.2m $15 (Fr6) Menangle 1609m (1:53.8) R64120 race Feb 1 then ran 16.5m 8th $41 (Fr1) Self Assured NZ Menangle 1609m the GROUP2 Hondo Grattan Stakes (grp2) Feb 8. Having his fourth run since a spell and winner at this stage in the past; this easier than last start and can bounce back.
