Finished last of ten over 1m4f at Vaal (handicap, behind Culturati) 30 days ago; can make his presence felt despite defeat last time as ran well at Turffontein three runs back and he has overcome this mark before.

Not really built on success in a Class 4 four months ago at Greyville; behind Itsnowornever when beaten 14l (seventh of ten) last month in a stakes race; is passed over.

A most decisive winner in a maiden plate when getting off the mark at the third time of asking at Vaal two weeks ago upped to 1m2f; considered given that not many of these impressed last time out.

Off the mark at the third time of asking when winning by just over 1l last month in a maiden plate; interesting given there is limited recent form on offer in this race and the draw has been kind.
