HAPPY BOYS

On August 27th, (dirt trial 1050m: 3-2-2) showed good early pace and responded well when asked to accelerate on the turn with reasonable progress. This is its seasonal debut after one barrier trial showing slight improvement. Benefiting from a one-pound weight reduction this time, it appears competitive compared to other horses in the same group and has drawn a favorable barrier. The intention is to settle back in the field relying on a strong finishing kick; trainer and jockey have a good rapport, but the overall situation isn’t ideal, aiming for a place.
