Comments:

Last year he won his maiden and an allowance at Arlington, 8th in the Bourbon at Keeneland, then was 2nd by a neck in the Kentucky Jockey Club at Churchill Downs. Ran a disappointing 5th in the Risen Star Stakes at the Fair Grounds for his first start this year. Trailed the pack through most of the Louisiana Derby then rallied for 4th, beaten over 9 lengths. Came back in the Illinois Derby to run second behind Musket Man. Trainer Chris Block announced on s 4/20 that he would get some time off before a summer campaign that could include a return to the grass.
