Three weeks ago, in a straight course race, the performance was poor; a slow start saw it settle towards the rear with an even pace but no finishing kick. Beaten three and a half lengths, it finished seventh. A turf trial over 1200m followed, and this time benefits from a one-pound weight reduction. The timing of its sectionals wasn't impressive, drawing an unfavorable outside barrier. Despite showing the ability to track the leaders, the current conditions aren’t ideal; however, trainer and jockey remain aligned in their approach, with no clear indication of potential success.
