Commentary

Globetrotter who failed to add to his 2024 Dubai Turf success for J. Reynier but opened his North American account at the first time of asking in 9-runner allowance at this course earlier in the month. Doesn't look the force of old.

What the projection says

Finishes ahead of its price historically, but the delivery record alone does not predict today's finish — it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 9th of 15.
