Four weeks ago over the same distance, the horse performed well despite a slow start, settling towards the back before unleashing a strong finishing burst. This time with a two-pound weight reduction, facing horses with varying times within the group, the barrier draw isn’t ideal. Although it has proven form at this distance and secured a decent gate, a hold-up tactics will likely be employed, relying on a good finishing kick. Preparations are thorough but is not considered a leading contender in this race.
