Third-up and drawn barrier 1, he sticks to 1609m after a 23.4L 5th of 5 in a Finger Lakes Maiden Special Weight 65 on 19 May carrying 54.5kg, racing at the tail throughout behind Lucky Dragon. Earlier, he was 5th of 6 over 1207m at Aqueduct in a Maiden Claiming 60. Needs to lift but the inside draw and blinkers could help him settle closer.

Third-up and on a short turnaround, he stuck on for 4th at Finger Lakes on 1 Jun over 1207m in a Maiden Claiming 67, racing handy throughout before fading 8.3L behind Cruising Cat. Drops 1.5kg to 54kg, draws barrier 2, and steps up 402m, which could help if he can settle and finish off better.

Short turnaround after a 7th of 11 over 1207m at Finger Lakes on 1 Jun, beaten 8L in a Maiden Special Weight 72 after settling midfield. Prior run was a solid 2nd of 6 over 1006m at the same track on 11 May in a Maiden Special Weight 68, racing on speed behind Lord King. Back to a similar setup with 56kg and a soft barrier, he has the Finger Lakes record to be competitive.

Fourth-up and back to 1609m, he stretches out 503m after finishing 7th of 7 at Finger Lakes over 1106m on 20 May (Maiden Claiming 67, 54kg), beaten 7.4L by Dignified Response. Best effort came at this trip when 5th of 8 here in Oct 2025 (Maiden Special Weight 66), and he draws barrier 4 with blinkers on. Needs to lift on recent figures but the return to the mile could help.

Third-up and on a short turnaround after finishing 7th of 10 over 1207m at Finger Lakes on 1 Jun, beaten 15L in Maiden Claiming 67 after settling near the rear. His best run came last October when 3rd of 7 over 1674m in Maiden Claiming 65, beaten 1L after leading early at $14. Back up in trip by 402m and drawn barrier 5, he needs to recapture that longer-route effort to feature.

Longstanding maiden (23:0-2-4) with a modest track return at Finger Lakes (14:0-1-2) and limited impact at 1609m (2:0-0-0). Blinkers go on and he draws barrier 6, with Keiber J. Coa aboard again (6:0-1-1) for a familiar trainer-jockey combo matching that record. Needs the gear change to spark improvement but profiles as a minor-share chance at best based on exposed figures.
