Jumped at $16.00 and didn't find the line when 12th last start at Churchill Downs and back to a shorter distance. Does take a while to get into stride. Prefer to watch.

Was $28.00 and folded up in the straight when 5th last start at Saratoga. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Rough hope.

Started at $11.00 and gave away some ground when 7th last run at Churchill Downs but was a debutant last start. The large claim from Yomar Ortiz Jr should help. Will be facing a challenge.

First up after a break. Started at $11.00 and weakened under pressure when 6th last start at Churchill Downs but was on debut last time. Prefer a race with softer competition.

Jumped at $16.00 and just average when 11th last start at Kentucky Downs but was a debutant last start. Might have to make up considerable ground. Tough race will need luck.
