Three weeks ago, the horse delivered a strong performance over a Happy Valley mile, jumping moderately and settling towards the rear before finishing with fast sections in the final two furlongs. A subsequent dirt trial over a mile showed respectable times within its group, requiring a hold-up strategy but demonstrating good finishing speed. The current race sees no weight reduction, and with Alexis Badel taking the ride – having some familiarity with the horse’s capabilities – trainer and jockey maintain a trusting relationship, suggesting it has strong winning potential.
