Four weeks ago over this distance, the horse performed well despite a slow jump, settling towards the rear before making a mid-race move and maintaining a good gallop to finish fourth. After a delayed resumption of training, it now benefits from a two-pound weight reduction. It has proven form over this course and distance, with good timing within its group. A hold-up strategy is expected, showcasing a strong finishing kick. The trainer and jockey have a solid rapport, and the horse has been undergoing focused gallop work leading up to the race. Despite drawing an unfavorable outside barrier, it shouldn't be underestimated.
