Has been out of the winner's circle for a long while but wasn't beaten all that far when fourth last start over 2200m at Roxburgh. Doesn't need to improve a great deal to take this out.

Form only moderate and has been without a win now for six runs. Last start finished 14th over 1980m at Addington. Needs to lift.

Scored by a neck over 1980m at Addington last start on the back of a solid 7 metres eighth at Motukarara the run before. Can play a role in the finish again.

Was plain when 40 metres away in 11th most recently at his first run back from a break over 1980m at Addington. Capable of testing this line up.

Was below his best last time when 11th over 2000m at Motukarara after finishing in the money two back at Mt Harding. Sure to improve on the latest effort.

Failed to threaten two runs back then last start was a well-beaten 14th over 2000m at Motukarara, 120 metres from the winner. Hard to have on those efforts.
