Two weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse performed respectably, jumping slowly and settling towards the back. It finished strongly but was beaten two and a half lengths for fifth place. This time, with no weight reduction, despite having previous form at this distance and drawing a good barrier, the pace difference within the group is a concern. The horse will likely be held up in the run, however its finishing kick may not be strong enough to compete effectively, making its chances less favorable; aiming just to finish close to the field.
