This horse recently trialled on {13/3} over 1200m on the dirt, finishing (4-4-2) while travelling wide with light riding, showing no signs of distress. Its last run over a mile on dirt was underwhelming – a slow start saw it settling towards the rear, although jockey reported the horse felt strong in its movement. A subsequent turf trial showed slight improvement. Facing a 5lb rise in weight for this race, the horse is expected to secure a good position and travel prominently. Drawing an inside barrier will be advantageous, with late speed considered the strongest in its group. Overall form appears superior to rivals, the jockey is gaining understanding of the horse's capabilities, and trainer-jockey synergy seems positive – suggesting a strong contender.
