He had a good comeback run when third over 1500m at Hollywoodbets Scottsville. He had to overcome a poor draw that day and finished off his race strongly. He has improved since that outing. It is a competitive field but with luck in running, he is more than capable of finishing in the first three.
Winning Form Comment: Ex Van Zyl G-2024.05.11. 2nd run after rest. Best MR:93. Good first run back at Howells camp. Respect.

Trainer: Alyson Wright
Jockey: #Rachel Venniker -1.5kg

He had a minor setback and returns from a 13-week break. The son of Fire Away has not had a grass gallop heading into this race. His work at home has been good but the stable feels that he may need the run.
Winning Form Comment: Rested 13 wks. Best MR:85. Fair latest behind subsequent winner. Chance if fit.
