Second-up. First start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 11 at Seymour 2yo Mdn-Sw on July 2 over 1300m, slow going 5 len behind Jazzclub carrying 58kg at $3. Went for a spell before returning got back early 6th of 10 at Mornington Mdn-Sw on December 11 over 1200m, 8 len behind Enright carrying 58kg at $4. Hard to get excited about his chances.
