SUPREME AGILITY

Three weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse ran poorly with a slow start and settled towards the rear. He made a mid-race move but faded in the finish. Last run was underwhelming; this time he needs to carry 17 pounds more weight. A hold-up tactics is expected, however, lacks finishing speed compared to rivals and faces unfavorable conditions due to a poor trainer-jockey rapport. Despite similar times within the stable, drawing a good barrier and a jockey change to Orman, who has some understanding of the horse’s capabilities, along with positive trackwork, offer little improvement potential.
