He returns from a 21-week break. He missed a grass gallop due to the rain and may need this outing. He will be settled near the rear of the field from the widest draw and will be doing his best work at the finish.

Wgt: 54.0kg
Draw: 3 (10 Runners)
Predicted Betting: 7/1
He has been disappointing in his three efforts to date. He tries the polytrack for the first time and carries a light mass of 51kgs. The son of Rafeef jumps from a good draw of three and we are hoping for good improvement.

Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Best MR:77. Moderate form. Is still lightly raced and can show improvement over the extra 200m.
