At $10.00 finished 4th last run at Ellis Park but was a debutant last start. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Will be a difficult assignment.

Odds of $23.00 and didn't attack the line when 9th last time at Ellis Park but having second race start. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Not likely to be troubling the more fancied runners today.
