His last start over 1200m at Hollywoodbets Scottsville is best ignored. The stable feels that he will find it difficult in this field racing off a handicap of 89. The son of Malmoos is fit and well heading into this contest. With luck in running, he should produce an encouraging performance.
Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Best MR:89. Ignore last run. Is still lightly raced and can show.
