Four weeks ago over the same distance, the horse performed adequately despite a slow start, settling towards the rear before finishing with fast sections in the final two furlongs to secure fourth place, beaten by only half a length – demonstrating a good level of performance. This time, without any weight reduction, having proven form at this distance and showing competitive times within its group, it possesses a higher overall ability compared to other contenders. Andrea Atzeni takes the ride, with some familiarity regarding the horse’s capabilities; pre-race trackwork suggests a hold-up tactic. However, its finishing kick may not match rivals, and the trainer/jockey combination appears less harmonious, indicating a likely outsider.
