    3m winner who is best on good ground; may have needed the run after a break when pulled up after a bad mistake at Kempton last time.

    Two Perth wins in June (four and three ran); mostly well held since but should find conditions (sound surface, 2m4f and right-handed track) ideal, so he is one to take seriously.
