Jumped at $10.00 and lost ground when 5th last run at Ellis Park. May find these too slick.

Started at $5.50 and faded away to finish 6th last run at Saratoga but racing over a longer distance. Won't be far away during the run. Others preferred.

Odds of $11.00 and came in 7th last start at Ellis Park but was a debutant last start. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Facing an increased distance. Sharp improvement needed.

Started at $18.00 and inched into 5th last run at Kentucky Downs and fitter for debut run. Gets back and needs luck. Very unlikely.
