Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 29-day let-up. Most recently came from midfield; 2nd of 11 at Keeneland Turf in the G3 Transylvania Stakes on April 3 over 1710m, 0.5 len behind Remember Mamba carrying 53.5kg at $14.15. The start before that held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at Gulfstream Park Turf in LR on February 28 over 1609m, 0.3 len behind Vasy with 54.5kg at $3.50. Hard to beat if he brings his A-game.
