Two weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse performed well, jumping slowly and settling towards the rear before unleashing a strong finishing burst to secure second place, beaten by half a length. This time, he carries an additional three pounds, has drawn a poor barrier, and may lack a strong finishing kick, making his chances less favorable. However, he has proven form over this distance, good times in the same class, and the ability to track the pace-setters. If he jumps cleanly and maintains a forward position, a place finish is within reach.
