South Island-based sprinter who produced a grand, final late sprint to capture an R70 event in his first North Island start at Trentham in mid-April. Experienced hoop Chris Johnson had the son of Ishiguru travelling sweetly in the rear group. And when he asked him for an effort he shot up the inside in rapid fashion to secure the major prize right near the line. He was in a freshened state having run seventh in the Dunedin Guineas, 70 days prior and should improve rapidly with that run under his belt.
