Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr3) over 1720m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track, at the bell was 10th-14.58 beaten 16 m by Rocksie Rock (2:03.90) in NR up to 52 on July 24 at $5.50. At his previous start 5th (Sr1) over 2125m at this track, at the bell was 8th-13.74 beaten 10 m by Grey Cadillac (2:34.70) in NR up to 53 on July 17 at $3.10. Certainly worth another chance.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 5th (Fr4) over 1720m after showing early pace at this track was 2nd-2.64 at the bell, beaten 15 m by Rocksie Rock (2:03.90) in NR up to 52 on July 24 at $12. The run before 6th (Fr2) over 2125m after showing early speed at this track was 5th-8.24 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Grey Cadillac (2:34.70) in NR up to 53 on July 17 at $4.40. This looks a suitable assignment.
