Is certainly the class runner in the field, having been a terrific hurdler a few seasons back. Over steeples now, will lead them and they won't want it to get too far in front

Very capable runner on the flat for Te Akau but to date, that hasn't counted for much over the hurdles. But won't get a weaker field than this to strut its stuff
