Two weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse ran well despite a slow start, settling towards the back before making up ground with fast sections in the final two furlongs. He finished within three and a half lengths of the winner. This time, he benefits from a two-pound weight reduction, is similarly timed against rivals, and will be ridden by Alexis Badel who has some understanding of the horse’s capabilities. Trainer and jockey are in agreement, with gatework suggesting improved strength. Despite drawing a poor barrier which may necessitate a hold-up tactic, his finishing kick isn't expected to match those of its opponents, making for an unfavorable situation but indicating potential.
