Finished 20m 8th $3.70 (Fr4) Aunty Millie Bathurst 1730m (2:00.3) R3249 race May 3 then beaten 26m 4th $34 (Sr2) Holy Camp Dillon Bathurst 1730m (1:58.2) R3149 race May 17. Drawn poorly but fitter for recent runs and could fill a spot.

Race comment

Raced well when 9.2m 3rd $51 (Fr1) Rusty McCool Bathurst 1730m (2:00.3) 3R4354 race May 10 then slow to begin when 29.5m 6th $34 (Fr2) Misdemeanor Bathurst 1730m (1:56.1) 3R4054 race May 17. Has placed in 2 from 7 at this track and distance and recent form acceptable; this easier than past couple and not not out of it.

Handy effort when 5.2m 2nd $21 (Fr2) Jimmy Tulhurst Bathurst 1730m (2:01.4) R4049 race May 3 then beaten 16.2m 2nd $41 (Fr1) Holy Camp Dillon Bathurst 1730m (1:58.2) R3149 race May 17. Lightly raced and has finished second at both runs this prep; drawn the pole and could break through here.
