Two weeks ago, in a race over the same distance, this horse tracked the leaders but faded in the final stages. He finished fifth, beaten three and a half lengths. This time he will carry an additional three pounds, having performed well at this distance previously with competitive times. Able to secure a good position tracking the pace, and drawing a favorable barrier, the horse is in good form and possesses a higher level of ability compared to other contenders. The trainer and jockey have a reasonable working relationship, suggesting potential for redemption."
