Odds of $6.00 and faded to finish 6th last time at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Should improve and facing a weaker grade. Has the ideal draw. Not interested today.

Started $10.00 and weakened under pressure when 4th last run at Churchill Downs. Looking for an improved run but up in class. Hard to see this being competitive today.

Narrowly beaten last time at this track but taking on stronger opponents. Has very good closing speed. The large claim from Jefferson Skerrett helps. Should go very close.

Couldn't keep the momentum going throughout when 3rd last run here but up against a more competitive field. Likely to be well placed early. One of the punters top hopes.
