Last outing finished ninth of 11 starters at Warrnambool Bm70 on July 24 over 3100m, on a wet track; 33 len behind Noonday Gun with 57kg at $61. Start before finished fourth in a small field at Casterton Bm120 Hdle on June 29 over 3500m, slow track; 23 len behind Gambu with 69.5kg at $9.50. Might find this a bit too tough.
