At the latest run held ground to the line 2nd of 12 at this track Lightning Open on August 16 over 950m, slow going head behind Lady Damus carrying 54kg at $17. The run before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 14 at Townsville Hcp on August 2 over 1000m, 2.5 len behind Russian Mint carrying 54kg at $41. Still has some life in him yet and is worth including.
