But while he is already open class material, Mangos says tonight is by no means South Coast Arden’s grand final and key rivals will be fitter.
“He is ready to go and has won fresh up so I am not saying he can’t win,” says Mangos.
“But in this grade when rivals are race fit it is very hard to beat them and I will drive him patiently.
“I don’t want him doing too much and being flattened for the big races coming up so while he is very much there to win I am not sure he can.”
