Was $8.00 and didn't threaten when 5th last time at Aqueduct but fitter for debut run. Gets a favourable draw. Appears tested.

Started at $8.50 and didn't find the line when 8th last run at Churchill Downs but having second career run. Likely to get back in the field. This field likely to be too good.

At $18.00 tailed off to finish 7th last start at Churchill Downs but having second career run. Hard to see this being good enough.

Finished amongst the placegetters when 3rd beaten by 3 1/4L last time around here and was a debutant last start. Flavien Prat is a key engagement. Watch for a sign in the market.
