Sat up with the leaders and wasn't disgraced when fourth 4.8L at Ladbrokes Geelong Bm64 over 1125m. Produced best over the final 400m for a solid second after settling midfield 1.5L at Flemington Bm70 over 1420m.

Non-competitive and never gave backers any joy 3.3L at Benalla Bm70 over 1406m. Still beaten easily but last part was encouraging for sixth after getting well back 3.5L at Hamilton Bm70 over 1600m.

Desperately close finish when photo could have gone either way, third 0.1L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside Bm70 over 1500m. Didn't make ground on placegetters but nonetheless a resilient run for fourth 2.1L at Mornington Cg&E Bm70 over 1600m.

Sixth 5.7L at Sonoda 4Up Allow Sw over 1400m. Ran on ok late but gave leaders a big head start 6.4L at Apiam Bendigo Bm70 over 1600m. Second-up.

Sat behind the leaders and appeared to have every chance 3.7L at Apiam Bendigo Bm78 over 2400m. Held spot to the line for fifth and never a winning chance 4.3L at Apiam Bendigo Bm70 over 1600m. Second-up.

Top run to finish off strongly into fourth after getting back a long way 1.8L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside Bm70 over 1800m. Nice effort for fourth when running on late 4.3L at Seymour Bm64 over 2000m. Performs well at this track/distance.

Made up some ground from midfield in a grinding effort 2.3L at Sportsbet Sandown Hillside Mdn-Sw over 1300m Soft 5. Determined win after sitting close to the lead in transit 0.8L at Ballarat Mdn-Sw over 1600m.

Trailed the leaders midfield however never improved thereon sixth 14.9L at Geelong Bm64 over 1740m Heavy 8. Failed to make any impression after settling a long way back 20.6L Chairmans Group 3 over 2000m. Has a history of running well at this track/distance.

Poor start, always rearward, prefer easier 6.9L Tulloch Group 2 over 2000m. Midfield with the leaders in sight however had little to show in the finish 11.6L Vrc St Leger Listed over 2800m. Down in grade here so don't dismiss.

Came with a nice run late into fourth but the bird had flown 1.8L at Horsham Bm64 over 1400m Heavy 8. Positioned a long way back in the running and showed best work late fourth 4.1L at Murtoa Bm64 over 1600m. Has a history of running well at this track/distance.
