Creditable fifth, beaten 2½l, of 12 a week ago; winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at 11; a few rivals look in good form so others appeal more.

Finishing third was a good effort last Thursday (had two of these rivals behind); series of good efforts to his name and seems to be improving based on last two runs; rates a likely contender as recent performance was encouraging.

Solid effort at Turffontein last month; has found improvement of late but winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at eight; been struggling to get her head in front recently so not hard to turn elsewhere.
