Mystery Bank failed to get a clear run on his latest start having gone close on his earlier debut while Venezuelan Hug lost ground at the start last time but had earlier finished behind SHAMROCKET here. The latter gets closer with every start and can open his account reunited with Irad Ortiz. Souper Watson is another with something to find with the selection though has been gelded since last in action and may improve while Freedom Force faces a more difficult task in this company on his debut on the Turf.
