VICTORYTHIRTYTHREE

Two weeks ago, this horse ran disappointingly over a Happy Valley 1200m, tracking the leaders with a steady pace but lacking a strong finish. Another trial over a short-distance Happy Valley course was completed. This time, without any additional weight, the horse has shown good form at this distance, and its times are comparable to rivals in this field. It is expected to challenge for the lead, drawing a favorable barrier. A clean break should allow it to go forward and contend.
