Felt the pinch late when 3rd beaten by 2 3/4L last run at Saratoga and will try to take advantage of the draw. Should jump out and bowl along. Good chance at a nice price.

Racing fresh today after a break of 68 weeks. Close up last run around here and putting a tidy record together so far. First start for a new trainer. Good chance and definitely has claims.

At $5.50 gave ground when 5th last run at Ellis Park. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Not hopeless.

Resumes from a 30 week break. At $14.00 didn't attack the line when 6th last run at Fair Grounds. Too much luck needed to come into contention.
