Two weeks ago, this horse ran poorly in a dirt mile, settling in a good position tracking the leaders at an even pace but lacking a strong finish. He finished seventh, beaten three lengths. Making his debut over Happy Valley’s mile distance this time with a two-pound weight reduction, he should be able to secure a good position tracking the leaders and has drawn a favorable barrier. His finishing kick is among the strongest in the field, presenting a promising situation, and shows significant improvement in form; expect him to cause an upset.
