MAGNIAC

Four weeks ago, this horse ran poorly over a Happy Valley 1200m, slow out of the gate and settling towards the rear with an even pace but lacking acceleration. He finished well-beaten. Returning to dirt at 1200m, he benefits from a six-pound weight reduction and posted comparable times in trackwork. This race will likely require him to settle back again; however, his finishing kick wasn't strong enough compared to rivals. Despite the unfavorable situation, he has shown good results over this distance previously and possesses potential.
