FORTUNE BOYTwo weeks ago, in a race over the same distance, this horse performed well despite a slow start, settling towards the rear before making a strong late run with fast sectionals. He finished sixth, beaten three and a half lengths. This time he benefits from a two-pound weight reduction and comparable group times; the plan is to settle back and rely on a finishing kick, which appears to be his strongest suit. His overall form suggests a clear advantage in this race. Andrea Atzeni takes the ride, demonstrating a strong understanding of the horse’s temperament. Despite drawing an outside barrier and a trainer/jockey combination that hasn't previously shown strong synergy, he is expected to perform well.
