Six weeks ago, this horse ran below expectations over a Happy Valley 1200m, slow to jump and settling towards the rear before showing strong momentum. A recent dirt trial over 1200m (sections: 3-3-3) saw it finish a noticeable third. Another turf trial over 1400m indicated slight improvement. This time, racing with a seven-pound weight reduction, while the timing gap within its group is notable, it's expected to race from behind; however, its finishing kick may not match rivals, putting it at a disadvantage. An advantageous inside barrier draw could prove decisive.
