Recently ran at AQU in The Stymie for a purse of $125.000 where he won by a length. Prior to that in February he was down at GP in an Optional Claimer Non Winners of 2 races where he won by a length. Looking to make his next step up in this Grade III. Both of the last two races were at today’s distance. Should perform well. His SRF number is 94.5.
- Flying Warrior Axeman Hernandez B J Jr
Didn’t make a great showing in the SA Handicap Grade I at SA going 1 ¼ mile on the main track. Prior to that he ran on the good going at GP in February in the Donn Handicap Grade I where he finished third. I think a drop down in class will certainly help him. His SRF number is 97.
