Three weeks ago, over the same distance, the performance was unremarkable. A slow jump meant it settled towards the rear, making a mid-race effort but failing to finish strongly. This time with a two-pound weight reduction, a hold-up tactic is planned; however, the finishing kick isn’t expected to be as strong as its rivals and the form doesn't appear ideal. Despite comparable sectionals with others in the group, trainer and jockey maintain good communication, but it is not considered a leading contender this race.
