Race comment

Raced well when 0.1m 2nd $34 (Fr4) Sapphire Swayze Menangle 2300m (1:56.6) C6588 race Mar 10 then sound effort when 5.7m 4th $11 (Fr3) Controversial NZ Menangle 2300m (1:55.7) C6695 race Mar 31. Narrowly beaten two back and other recent runs sound; likely leader here and could win this with a soft run.
