First up from a spell of 122 weeks. Folded up in the straight when 8th last run at Gulfstream Park but has minimal work to do from the barrier. Looking to place betting and exotics.

Was $7.00 and overtook some late when 5th last run at the track. The large claim from Christian Maragh helps. Slight prospect.

Started $5.00 and moved ahead of some to finish 4th last start at this venue. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Has every chance.

First up after a 549 week break. Couldn't maintain the pace when 6th last time at Turfway Park and will be down in distance. First appearance for a new trainer. Hard to see this being competitive today.
