At $13.00 couldn't maintain the pace when 5th last time at this track. Putting up notable efforts since resuming from a spell. Respect the betting.

Fresh after a spell. Showed a good turn of foot when 3rd last run at the track in 16.6s and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Attracts support.
