Resumes from a break of 30 weeks. Was $8.00 and didn't attack the line when 9th last time at Fair Grounds. Expected to rebound. Jockey Timothy Thornton is highly regarded. One of the punters top hopes.

Resumes after a break. Solid effort to run into 3rd beaten by 4 3/4L last start at Evangeline Downs. Betting is the best guide.

Started $6.50 and weakened under pressure when 8th last start at Louisiana Downs and back to a shorter distance. Always seems to find the line well. Has some claims.
