Back after a spell. Started at $11.00 and folded up in the straight when 7th last time at Churchill Downs but was on debut last time. Needs a lot of luck.

Jumped at $28.00 and faded at the finish when 5th last start at Ellis Park and having second career run. Should be going forward early. Will need everything to go right.

First up after a break. Started at $11.00 and didn't threaten when 6th last time at Churchill Downs but having second career run. Very unlikely to shake these.
