Bound by Humor Fits in Mike Lee

Parker Lightfield Farm's Bound by Humor, fresh off a 6 ¾-length maiden victory at Belmont on May 18, will tackle stakes competition for the first time in the Mike Lee.

Trained by Rodrigo Ubillo as a 2-year-old, Bound by Humor finished second in his first two starts, was fourth in his third start, and reported home seventh in his seasonal finale, the Sleepy Hollow on Showcase Day at Belmont in October. In January, he was transferred to Tom Albertrani, for whom he has made one start.

"I thought he was very impressive the first time I ran him," Albertrani said of Bound by Humor's maiden victory. "He was training well going into the race, so we were very optimistic he was going to run well that day. He actually ran a lot better than I expected."

While the Mike Lee will be Bound by Humor's first start against winners, Albertrani is confident the colt will handle the step up in class.

"I wouldn't think he have to improve a whole off his last race," said Albertrani. "I think he fits well in the stake."
