Started $9.00 and came in 5th last time around here but gets a favourable draw. Back to a shorter distance. In a lot of trouble.

Was strong on the speed before fading to finish 2nd last start at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Won't be far away during the run. Have to respect the recent stable form. Has a good chance.

Jumped at $8.00 and didn't find the line when 8th last start at this track and will be down in distance. Should muster plenty of early toe. Cannot have.

2yo by Into Mischief having first start for Wesley A Ward. The large claim from Yomar Ortiz Jr should help. Respect the betting.

Worked hard to finish 2nd last start at Keeneland. Expecting to settle positively. Stable is in form. Seems very unlikely.

Odds of $18.00 and tailed off to finish 7th last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Likely to get back in the run. Not interested today.

Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Odds of $16.00 and gave away some ground when 8th last start at Saratoga but was on debut last time. Very unlikely to cause an upset.

Was $8.00 and couldn't maintain the pace throughout when 4th last time at Belmont Park. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Will need to elevate.
