SUPER FORTUNE

Three weeks ago, in a straight course race, the horse performed poorly, tracking the leader with a steady pace but lacking a strong finish. He finished eighth, beaten three and a half lengths. A subsequent dirt trial over 1200m suggests this time he will run without any additional weight, possesses early speed, and draws an advantageous inside barrier. Andrea Atzeni takes the ride, showing some understanding of the horse’s capabilities, while the trainer-jockey combination appears well-suited. Despite a potential lack of finishing kick and a slight time difference within the stable, if he jumps cleanly and commits to leading, he should improve his position.
